(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 28, 2009 ) CEDAR CITY, Utah–Explore national parks in the winter, enjoy Utah’s ski and snowboard hot spots, and catch some fun in Las Vegas while using Cedar City, Utah as your “base camp.” This concept solves vacation planners’ problems when trying to accommodate everyone in their family or men/women getaway groups.
In southern Utah, two national parks, Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park, along with Cedar Breaks National Monument are linked by scenic byways and create a “grand circle.” Additional scenic monuments and winter recreational areas are easily accessed among the parks. Wildlife trek in the snow while visitors photograph frozen ice scenery, or vacationers opt for cross-country skiing in Bryce Canyon, hiking in Kolob Canyon or snowmobiling in Cedar Breaks.
Some visitors stay in Cedar City and head north to ski for the day in Salt Lake City. Other families enjoy southern Utah’s Brian Head Resort for snowboarding and skiing. This resort added 35 percent more terrain in 2007, as well as two new chair lifts and a skier bridge over the highway. The evenings are then reserved for Las Vegas. Only two hours apart, Las Vegas is the “gateway city” to southern Utah and many national park visitors take advantage of its nightlife.
Lodging that includes fireplaces and well-appointed cabins, can be found in the Brian Head Ski area, located in the heart of the national parks. Cedar Breaks Lodge is a full-service condominium hotel with a day spa, and Brian Head Vacation Rentals offers cabin or condominium options for all budgets. Visit company Web sites at www.cedarbreakslodge.com or www.vacationbrianhead.com.
Specializing in Cedar Breaks National Monument and Bryce Canyon cross-country skiing and snowshoeing tours, as well as ice climbing excursions and equipment rentals is Southern Utah University Outdoor Center at (435) 865-8704. Thunder Mountain Motor Sports offers Cedar Breaks snowmobile tours. Visit www.brianheadthunder.com.
