Looking for the unexpected!
Hi! The hubby and I are headed in October to Great Basin,Capitol Reef, Bryce and Zion. We have been to Zion before, but not the other parks. We are looking for favorites you had visiting any of those ...

Here are 3 unexpected finds we made while we were in Virgin, UT, just outside Zion Natl Park. We stayed at Zion River RV Resort, which was super nice.
1. The Cactus Room is a combination antique store/restaurant. Bob is very friendly and cooks a nice meal.
2. There is a very un-traveled drive called Kolob Terrace Road within a mile or so of there...it has some beautiful scenery and winds in and out of a section of Zion, without all the crowds.
3. About 50 miles southeast of Virgin is Kanab, UT--lots of things to see there, but the best thing is that it is the location of the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, well worth a drive through...there are sections with dogs, horses, etc., and the pet cemetery is filled with little monuments and wind chimes that you can hear long before you get there.
