TOP 10 PLACES IN UTAH | (That Aren't National Parks)

In this video I break down my top 10 favorite places in Utah, one of the most diverse, adventurous, and beautiful states in the countries. Filled with snow capped mountains, deserts, waterfalls, canyons, salt flats, and more, Utah has so many hidden gems. So much so that there is an endless amount to explore even past all of the national parks, which is why in this top 10 you won’t see any national parks featured!

    Thanks for sharing BUT here come the crowds.

    Been through Hanksville on the way to Powell but had no idea these other places existed.

    This was amazing!

    Beautiful video

    The last place youve shown here , I went to and traveling and didnt know where I was going. I remember traveling in my old truck and going down this road.
    its was early in the morning and the sun had come up and it was so extremely hot. My front car tires had literally stripped the rubber away and I didnt know it. With very little money and no credit cards, I stopped at a minute market literally out in the middle of the nowhere. I looked at my one front tire and it was ripped to shreads. I didnt have a spare tire. I was truly fucked!!!!! All of a sudden , i got up enough nerve to ask if anyone could help. This lone guy in this old SUV gave way to my asking if he could help. He then said he lived on a reservation of a particular Indian site that was a few miles down the road. He said he had a near sized tire and a jack if I wanted to follow him. He said that i had just traveled the same road that forest gump had been filmed. Beautiful country and the road was so hot out there it was a place where the sun was on fire it was so hot.
    I followed and he lived on an old Indian reservation and sure enough he jacked it up and put the tire on.
    What an incredible blessing he was. He was such a big help.
    So I was able to make it to the nearest small town which ended up being a bout a hundred miles away. I finally made it to California , and actually had to buy more tires for my old truck along the way.

    Thanks for watching! Check out my new video ‘Top 20 Places in Utah You Need to Visit’ where I dive deeper into the state and include national parks, state parks, the Uintas, & much more! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syxsvczgxqA&t=3s

    I was there , there are huge big red rock mountains underneath, what is that called ?

  8. ImaMonaKnight on October 10, 2021 at 1:26 pm

    Soo Gorgeous..Thanks Foreverything 💯💞

  9. Ted on October 10, 2021 at 1:26 pm

    Agreed, you did great job in showcasing Utahs’ natural beauty. A small word of unsolicited advice, however, from a world traveler – it lends much more credence and validity to your piece when you get place-name pronunciations correct. Not to mention, it makes the inhabitants of said places feel more important, ultimately lending a serendipitous reciprocity, if you will, of openness and “welcome” to practitioners of your ilk, which furthers your access into the special “secret” places. Hopefully, you will one day regard this as sage advice. Don’t forget, there is no substitute for ‘good research.’ It’s pronounced Hur’ a kin, not Hurricane? Thanks for the floor.

    Low key flexing his gf

  11. LP111 on October 10, 2021 at 1:30 pm

    Wheres the place shown at 0:06 – 0:12?

  12. Diganta Chakrobarty on October 10, 2021 at 1:32 pm

    The entire state should be made a national park and preserved for eternity for the benefit of humankind!

  13. Michael Fox on October 10, 2021 at 1:33 pm

    The one I want to see from this list is Snow Canyon. It looks to be the most unique in a state with beautiful rock formations because of the volcano.

  14. Copisetic 1 on October 10, 2021 at 1:34 pm

    They are great if can find a parking place, and can wait in line to get on a trail. Or get a permit to go to the area. I’m native Utahn and I don’t vacation in Utah anymore. I stay away from anything that says NATIONAL or STATE.

  15. Vicki Depontes on October 10, 2021 at 1:34 pm

    I live here in Utah there are no negatives at all Utah is truly the best state

  16. Tawni Holm Holm on October 10, 2021 at 1:35 pm

    Have you been to Edge of the World yet? It’s one of those places that crosses the border of utah and Arizona and you will need an ATV to get there. Really quite beautiful, and if you take a local from the small town there, they can show you a ton of Indian ruins on your way out and back. Definitely worth the trip!

  17. Infernape YT on October 10, 2021 at 1:35 pm

    Woww

  18. lesterguzman on October 10, 2021 at 1:36 pm

    when you will be in washington dc

  19. Maxi Bon on October 10, 2021 at 1:37 pm

    Funny that’s it’s only drone footage that gives you false expression on all of this places. You not a fucking bird to see it from above.

  20. 달지니 on October 10, 2021 at 1:38 pm

    Thank you for this amazing vid! Cant wait to go in few weeks 😍😍

  21. The Nomad on October 10, 2021 at 1:40 pm

    There are state parks at Quail Creek and Sand Hollow reservoirs.

  22. Zlata Widmer on October 10, 2021 at 1:40 pm

    Wow, it’s amazing, thank you 🙏🥰🙏

  23. MegaHowtoMan on October 10, 2021 at 1:41 pm

    Sick video. We just hiked Sundance Peak to Stuart Falls. Coming from Florida this place is epic.

  24. scott moore on October 10, 2021 at 1:42 pm

    It might be the kt boundary!

  25. David Cromer on October 10, 2021 at 1:44 pm

    "kinda"!

  26. James Birney on October 10, 2021 at 1:45 pm

    Only asking because i would like to get similar great shots, i was under the impression you could not use a drone in any national parks????

  27. Robert Renk on October 10, 2021 at 1:46 pm

    I live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania but have traveled to Utah at least 8 times. The drive from Bryce Canyon to Torrey Utah is amazing! A place not many know about is the Moki Dugway and Gooseneck State Park.

  28. Caber Cabe on October 10, 2021 at 1:46 pm

    You are definitely not from Utah

  29. Lucas Pickford on October 10, 2021 at 1:52 pm

    Ancient strip mining and giant tree harvesting operation.

  30. Yury Shatrov on October 10, 2021 at 1:52 pm

    Utah is so gorgeous!!! Just an amazing place in the world 🔥

  31. newyork trends on October 10, 2021 at 1:53 pm

  32. Trish Donner on October 10, 2021 at 1:53 pm

    Awesome💞 Dead Horse point is where Thelma and Louise driving off the cliff was filmed!!!

  33. Hoang Mai on October 10, 2021 at 1:53 pm

    Thanks for the tips places to visit in Utah. You must had permission to used the drone. Most of National Parks prohibited 🚫 for any drones at all.

  34. Japan Conference 2020 on October 10, 2021 at 1:53 pm

    OK, Utah boy here, formerly guided down in S Utah- if you haven’t already, you should try Moki Dugway to Muley Point, overlooking Valley of the Gods. North of Monument Valley… so good. The drive is… well… spectacular!

  35. Otto Mantz on October 10, 2021 at 1:56 pm

    cmon dude kevin man

  36. Debbie Osuna on October 10, 2021 at 1:58 pm

  37. Mason J Krangle, CPA & Financial Consultant on October 10, 2021 at 1:58 pm

    Utah is exceptionally beautiful. We love living near Snow Canyon in southern Utah. Killer views!

  38. Paul Sholar on October 10, 2021 at 1:58 pm

    No mention by you that Monument Valley is part of Native American reservation land.

  39. Diamond Ruby on October 10, 2021 at 1:58 pm

    Wow thanks for showing us this beautiful places Love it🥰

  40. Nicholas Miller on October 10, 2021 at 2:02 pm

  47. Theseph Kind on October 10, 2021 at 2:06 pm

  48. Vittorio Viarengo on October 10, 2021 at 2:10 pm
