10 Bodies of Water in Utah That You Shouldn't Miss
Welcome to “The Greatest Snow on Earth” – Utah’s paradise for all outdoor enthusiasts! As host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, Park City knows how to entertain winter fun seekers. Snowboarders and skiers head for miles of spectacular slopes with deep fluffy powder and breathtaking mountain views. The Olympic Park provides family-friendly ski programs, rides and shows. Alta, Sundance, Snowbird and Brighton are other popular destinations for cross country and Alpine skiers. Those alluring snowy slopes turn to rolling wildflower fields in the summer. Golfing, fishing, horseback riding and water sports replace chilly outdoor sports adventures. Corral the family, pack a picnic and catch one of the ski lifts for an afternoon of hiking or mountain biking along scenic trails. Head to Salt Lake City, where Temple Square hosts millions of visitors a year. Bryce Canyon and Arches National Park are famous for surreal landscapes from horseshoe-shaped amphitheaters to unusual rock formations and hundreds of natural sandstone arches. Closer to home, wander along the quaint main streets of mountain villages to browse, shop and enjoy lunch at an outdoor café. At the end of the day, head home for an outdoor barbecue and an evening of games. Home rentals blend privacy, space and comfort with the cost-saving advantage of eating some meals at home.

Onion creek is quite an adventure and driveable if your vehicle has fairly good clearance, Our Honda Pilot did not have a problem. I would not attempt after recent rains. There are 30 (yep 30; I counted them) low water crossings. The low water crossings were not deep but sometimes with quite large rocks in the stream bed. I was a bit of a clinched-teeth passenger going through them but just go slow and be careful. Here's a rundown: ONION CREEK CROSSINGS 10/18/2020 Begin Onion Creek Campground; End Taylor Ranch 30 Creek Crossings Bridge just beyond Crossing 18 (Stop and look down; below is a beautiful slot canyon) Blue and White Rocks @ Crossing 20 (Interesting Geology) Stinky Creek @ Crossing 23 (Stop to smell and explore the spring at the base of the rocks)

Great 6 mile hike that was mostly easy with a couple of moderate spots. Fantastic views, some good shady spots and the waterfall at the end was really worth the effort to make it to the end!

We were able to access the Forty Mile Ridge parking area (down the sandy road) with an AWD vehicle and took the shortcut across the top of the gulch to the 200' drop in. The rope was in place but it's a very basic nylon rope. Once at the bottom the entire hike is gorgeous! Best hike we did in Escalante. We did it all in one day - left the car around 9am and was back by 3pm. The .7 miles uphill in sand is a horrible at the end but the climb through the crack in the rock is awesome! Highly recommend this hike.
