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!

    What place was represented in the intro of the video? The one with the rainbow colored hills.

    Thanks for the video😊

  4. Nøkken on January 7, 2023 at 7:49 pm

    I feel like the canyons along the Wasatch front don’t get enough love.
    They are by far my favorite part of this wonderful state!

  7. Tim Schulte on January 7, 2023 at 7:53 pm

    You need to see Mulee Point and Mokee Dugway… Spectacular..

  8. jugglars on January 7, 2023 at 7:54 pm

    I’m currently planing a trip through the West (CA, NV, UT) and found your video. Awesome … we just don’t have time enough to see all this. Thanks for the inspiring video

  10. elli003 on January 7, 2023 at 7:59 pm

    Beautiful shots Kevin ! Between shoots, don’t forget to eat at the Thunderbird Cafe in Mt. Carmel Jct. Home of the Ho-Made Pies ! The best Route 66 cafe genre left !

  11. Gaylynn Mauss on January 7, 2023 at 8:02 pm

    There’s a couple other places of the San Rafael swell. Willow Lake, 9 mile canyon if you go to San Rafael swell go down below and you’ll see lots Indian radiance and that’s what nine Mile Canyon is also

  12. brAnt on January 7, 2023 at 8:03 pm

    Great video! BUT, you say "kinda" every other sentence, sometimes more. It’s kinda weird. It kinda takes away from your narration.

  13. Rafa Hurt & EQUA drone on January 7, 2023 at 8:05 pm

    Hi Nice Places. Do you recommend all these places for drone photography?
    Thank you

  14. Sanchayan Sarkar on January 7, 2023 at 8:08 pm

    Monument Valley is on a whole different level.

  15. We The People!!! on January 7, 2023 at 8:09 pm

    Filming and editing is on point my man.
    Great job!

  16. Official Rivv on January 7, 2023 at 8:11 pm

    Going in June with my Dad

  17. ColosouTDR on January 7, 2023 at 8:12 pm

    What’s the place at 0:07?

  18. Andy Outside Vlogs on January 7, 2023 at 8:12 pm

    I live in Utah. We’re spoiled with scenery here. Just posted a new video of Bells Canyon, it was pretty dope.

  19. Naice on January 7, 2023 at 8:15 pm

    The reason the rock is different colors everywhere and has certain lines is because of LAKE BONNEVILLE was here a long time ago!

  20. William Brown on January 7, 2023 at 8:16 pm

    My favorite place in Utah is Bears Ears National Monument. I’ll take the Cedar Mesa area over pretty much all of the national parks in America 🇺🇸. If you had 3 full months in the Cedar Mesa area. You still would not see everything the Cedar Mesa area is big!

  21. Jeremy Roberts on January 7, 2023 at 8:17 pm

    You did an excellent job on this, Kevin. I was in St. George on New Year’s in 1989 when the Quail Creek dike failed. It was crazy to be evacuated. You hit on some beautiful areas. When you have the chance, check out Central Utah from Fairview Canyon down to Boulder Mountain. Even with these 10 amazing spots, you haven’t exert scratched the surface of the beauty that exists here. Those of us who live here are fortunate. Well done, Kevin.

  22. Kevin Eassa on January 7, 2023 at 8:18 pm

    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

  23. Old Goat on January 7, 2023 at 8:18 pm

    Anyone been to Strawberry point? I was there on New Years eve at 12:00 12 -31 1999.

  24. Alamin hossain on January 7, 2023 at 8:19 pm

    Your video is really helpful and awesome; the kind I am actually looking for since long time. I hate overcrowds and always looking for hidden gems and less crowded places, your video is key to that. I hope all these places don’t get overcrowded like Zion or arches and hope you can make more videos like that for each states. Thanks

  25. Joe on January 7, 2023 at 8:19 pm

    Fantastic video!!! Thank you for sharing this!

  26. Joshua Ramsey on January 7, 2023 at 8:21 pm

    Great video, thank you!

  27. darthtrabia on January 7, 2023 at 8:21 pm

    Glad to see our 11-20 are more beautiful than most states #1

  28. Pete M on January 7, 2023 at 8:22 pm

    This is an incredible video!! I’ve been to a few of the spots you feature but the drone footage is incredible. I wonder if you can enjoy most of these places from the ground as much as you can from the air. Thanks so much for being there and sharing!

    😀😀ALAN DERSHOWITZ:"I’m a liberal Democrat. I voted for Biden," Dershowitz explained on Just the News, Not Noise. "I’m not gonna vote for Trump if he runs for re-election. I want to have the right to vote against him. I don’t want to see bureaucrats deny me that right to vote against him. That’s what democracy is. And this is part of an attempt to try to get him disqualified from running."
    Dershowitz also said that a vast amount of Americans want equal treatment and justice for politicians on both the left and right.
    "There’s the vast majority of neutral Americans who want to see fair justice," Dershowitz said. "They don’t want a different rule for Hillary Clinton and Sandy Berger on the one hand, and President Trump on the other hand. They want to see equal justice under the law."
    Dershowitz then explained how what is happening to former President Trump is "selective justice."
    "It appears as if this is selective justice," Dershowitz concluded. Now the FBI may come in and say, "Oh, my God, you don’t know the evidence we have. We had evidence that people were about to destroy the documents."
    😀😀"Trump wasn’t even there," Dershowitz continued. "How could he destroy the documents? All they had to do was subpoena and make them appear in court with the 15 boxes the next morning, even before Trump could get back."
    Dershowitz described Trump’s home being invaded as "McCarthyism from the left."

    Thank you for this great guide! It’s especially great for folks trying to avoid the crowds at peak season.

  31. COSMIC PSYOPS on January 7, 2023 at 8:25 pm

    There are also large underground lava caves in Snow Canyon. There are several cinder cone volcanoes near Diamond Valley but they are further off the road. The line has to do with historic water levels and iron oxidation and the chemical makeup of the rock.

  32. Devin Shumway on January 7, 2023 at 8:26 pm

    Lol you didn’t show my secrete spot in Moab

  33. Mechanic Dad (Jessie) on January 7, 2023 at 8:26 pm

    Another place you should check out sometime is Toquerville falls. Located close to Hurricane. It’s a little place and most likely need a 4×4 to get to. But it’s fun. Another one is Meadow got springs.

  34. Linda Curran on January 7, 2023 at 8:29 pm

    Thanks for info will be visiting Utah this June

  35. Nelu Ciorba on January 7, 2023 at 8:29 pm

    it would be nice to have the ceo coordinates going there by car…

  36. ddd hhh on January 7, 2023 at 8:29 pm

    Great aerial footage here. Wow!

  37. Meg Waller on January 7, 2023 at 8:30 pm

    What an awesome video! I truly enjoyed it. It sure has helped this ol South Carolina girl plan her trip out there next summer! Kudos!

  38. joselusa99 on January 7, 2023 at 8:30 pm

    Thanks for sharing, great video and awesome recommendations. I will definitely add a few of these to my list of destinations to visit.

  39. Cardinals fan on January 7, 2023 at 8:31 pm

    Why did property taxes jump up so high here in Utah in 2022??!!

  40. Graciela Desiderio on January 7, 2023 at 8:31 pm

    Qué bello!…la creación de Dios es maravillosa!!!

  41. Joon Bugg on January 7, 2023 at 8:31 pm

    I would add the San Rafael Swell.

  42. Julie Davidson on January 7, 2023 at 8:32 pm

    We just changed our vacation plans because of this great video! Dead Horse instead of North rim GC. Thanks. Love the art photography as well <3

  43. Zach Zwenger on January 7, 2023 at 8:33 pm

    Kevin,
    Fantastic content my friend! I love the spots that you have posted through your videos I have seen about Utah.
    My fiancé and myself are going out in July for a few weeks and will definitely be checking out a few of these places!

    Also. For the reservoirs, I know you mentioned boating and paddle boarding, but can you swim?

    Thanks man, and again, great job on the content!

  44. Cris Coleman on January 7, 2023 at 8:34 pm

    Thanks for posting this. While I’ve seen video footage from some of these places, they were always from the ground—hiking, drive throughs, etc. Your drone footage took it to a whole new level. From the ground, you don’t get the total awesomeness of these places.

    I’ve seen a hike up to the first ladder in Kanarra Falls but never any footage past it. I never even knew there was a second ladder. I’d have a real issue climbing even one of them if they both look like that.

    I’ve seen a drive through of Snow Canyon and a hike up one of the side canyons, but this is the first I have heard of there being a volcano there. That’s pretty cool. Can you hike up to the top of it?

    I’ve seen several videos and lots of photos of Dead Horse Point but had no idea of the massiveness of the canyon lands around it. Your drone footage certainly gives it a certain resemblance to the Grand Canyon, for sure.

    And I’ve never seen Bonneville Salt Flats with water on it like that, although I’ve driven past them numerous times. That’s where all the land speed records are set and you can bet there’s no water when present when they do that.

    I just can’t say enough about the drone footage. That was the crème de la crème of the video. In fact, that’s what MAKES the video for me. I’ll be watching your top 20 places in Utah next.

    Hurricane, by the way, is pronounced "Her (accented syllable) – uh – cn" (yes, the "c" and "n" are run together and the whole of it is pronounced very fast).

  45. Dan Palmer on January 7, 2023 at 8:36 pm

    Great footage! Although feel like you are missing some gems in northern utah like flaming gorge, red castle in the uintahs, bear lake, green river and yampa river near vernal.

  46. Jane Robley on January 7, 2023 at 8:36 pm

    You need to plan a trip to the Unitas. There are a ton of beautiful hikes up there.

  47. Chelcie Hope on January 7, 2023 at 8:36 pm

    U need to go to Lake Powell

  48. Arthur Silva on January 7, 2023 at 8:38 pm

    Deer Creek Reservoir is amazing, it’s near Sunset and it looks like the Alps! If you’re into kite surfing, kayaking, hiking, stand up paddle boarding, mountain biking and alpine vibes, you’re gonna love this area!
