Hidden Gem
A beautiful, small Utah State Park located next to Wide Hollow Reservoir lake in Escalante Utah. Close to Bryce NP without the crowds. Excellent hiking trails. The Petrified Forest Trail offers outstanding views of the lake and valley, with a few examples of petrified logs. However, if you really want to see hundreds of petrified log segments, take the Sleeping Rainbows Trail off of the Petrified Forest Trail. Note, the trails are marked Moderate in AllTrails for a reason, with ample scrambling and climbing. The reservoir is open for fishing and boating. The park offers a variety of sites for tents and RVs, including partial hook-ups (electric and water). There are showers, a dump station, and firewood available. An excellent little park!
