Hiking at Zion National Park

As their website points out, our next stop, Zion River RV Resort in Virgin, Utah is “Nestled beside Utah’s tranquil Virgin River and surrounded by a vista of vibrant colored mountains.” The RV park is in a great location at about a 20-minute drive to Zion National Park. We had no trouble getting into our site, though it would have been nice to have some distance between us and our neighbors. This seems to be more the norm, we’re finding this summer, as many of the parks we’ve stayed at have squeezed in as many sites as possible. read more

The Bonneville Salt Flats

For our 12th leg of the trip, we were booked for 10 days at Pony Express RV Park in North Salt Lake, Utah. Our first time in Utah, we will spend an entire month here this trip, staying at four different RV parks. The Pony Express was a great location and fit our needs pretty well–there is never a perfect campsite, we’ve found. The sites were level, which is always a plus, but SO close together. There wasn’t really any comfortable place to sit outside and it seemed like a lot of travelers were just stopping over for the night so we had a lot of in and out activity on either side of us during our stay. read more
