Zion, Bryce, Arches & Canyonlands: spent a lot of time there camping and hiking. Some of the most beautiful and enthralling country I have ever seen.
We are huge fans of the Utah parks, and Capitol Reef in particular - there’s something about the solitude there you don’t get in the others. Bryce is awesome b/c we were able to a stargazing program with rangers with a bunch of telescopes set up, and got to see a ton of stuff you can’t see in urban areas with naked eye - and they pointed out various satellites overhead too.
We also would consider relocating to Utah b/c of proximity to the parks (and it’s just a couple of hours to Yellowstone/Grand Teton for good measure.
