Utah, Utah.
Only a few miles from nearby Vernal are multiple gateways to some of the region's best adventures. For a little bit of everything, consider Steinaker State Park. If you enjoy fishing you should definitely put it on the list. If you like water sports, the warm summer water and lack of crowds will put a smile on your face when the weather gets hot.
The park also is popular with ATV/OHV enthusiasts and now accesses some popular local doubletrack trails. Ride north on the campground entrance road to a trailhead. This route takes you to the moderate Doc’s Beach and the advanced Red Mountain. Alternatively, get out the GPS and track down the park's three geocaches. Steinaker is the perfect location for multiple outdoor activities for people of all ages and abilities.
In the winter, enjoy ice fishing, dry and electric only campsites, cross country skiing, ice skating, and OHV riding. Make a reservation on the Utah State Parks reservation site.
