Spring break in Southeast Utah- I did a push-up in 4 states at once (and finally visited New Mexico- 47 states down 3 to go), visited Monument Valley, had the best Navajo taco of my life, saw the spot where Forrest Gump stopped running, visited Gooseneck State Park, Newspaper Rock, Canyonlands National Park, and Arches National Park. We hiked up to Delicate Arch and wow!!
Along the way we enjoyed learning from “The Dude” from the guidealong app. Highly recommend their tours- we’ve now done the Yellowstone, Oahu, Bryce Canyon and Zion, Grand Canyon, Big Sur, Maui, Monument Valley, and Canyonlands/Arches tours and they have all been top notch.
We missed Eva who was doing lifeguard certification and couldn’t come play 🥲. We’re lucky to have so much amazing beauty so close to home.

Our March visit to Sequoia was nothing short of amazing!!
There were closures, there were a lot of people and there were snowy paths but in the end the natural beauty of the Giant Sequois had a calming feeling. I`m pretty sure that came from us being mesmerized by the sheer size of these Giants!

Things you need to know for your springtime visit!
1.) There are closures
● The Scenic Drive 180 through Kings Canyon was closed and is normally closed until late April.
● Also the parking lot for general sherman was closed. This left as small parking lot open, but it fills up by 8AM, and we saw people walking over a mile because they parked at pullouts.
● Lastly, the scenic drive to Moro Rock and Tunnel Log was closed. But you can still hike out about 1.2 miles on the road. It was scenic and not too many people in the mid afternoon.
● Visitors Centers are only open on certain days of the week. Check their schedule in the NPS app.
2.) There will be snow
● Bring snow boots or waterproof hiking boots. There was still a lot of snow in parts and on trails. Congress trail had deep snow, but the more people that walk it, the better.
●With snow also comes ice. Bring Crampons, especially if you are determined to do Moro Rock.
3.) PEOPLE! LOTS OF PEOPLE!
● Parking lots get full, so get there early or late. Sleep mid day if you`re not a morning person. Trust us. The headache of fighting for a parking spot or dealing with crowded trails isn`t worth the beauty sleep.
Our advice for the itinerary
If you are coming from Three Rivers, it`s 1 hr and 20 min to the top. Drive to General Sherman first. Get there early. Then, drive all the way to General Grant. There you`ll have a scenic trail and the Monarch Tree, which is a sequoia you can walk through entirely. That`s about 1 hour from General Sherman. Then go to the Mark Twain stump. Park near the entrance to Kings Canyon, and it`s across the street.
Drive all the way back to do Moro Rock and Tunnel Stump. It`s perfect in mid afternoon and definitely sunset.

In Desert Memorial Park, you can find Frank Sinatra’s final resting place where he is buried with a bottle of Jack Daniels, Camel cigarettes, a Zippo lighter and 10 dimes, as a result of his son’s kidnapping.
In 1963, Frank Sinatra Jr. was kidnapped, and the kidnappers demanded that all communication be conducted via payphone.
The kidnappers ultimately released Frank, Jr. unharmed and police caught them. But Frank Sinatra carried the memory of that event with him and was always worried about not having coins to make a phone call if his son was kidnapped again.
From that point on, Sinatra always wanted to be sure he could use a pay phone whenever he had to, so he made sure he had no fewer than ten dimes in his pocket for the rest of his life, and beyond.
