The 3,730-acre park is a wonderful place for riding off-highway vehicles, wildlife photography, hiking or simply playing in the sand.

A new handicapped-accessible ramp leading to the overlook and new restrooms were recently completed.

The park has a 22-unit pull-through campground, modern restrooms, showers, a waste disposal station and blacktop roads that are open year-round.

Nearby are Zion and Bryce Canyon national parks, the Escalante National Monument, Lake Powell and Kodachorme and Escalante state parks.

The park covered with snow.
