Mystical Can

We definitely recommend hiring a tour guide for this one. After a scenic four hour drive to Kanab from Utah County, we were so excited to meet up with Brett, our guide from Dreamland Tours. He was a kind fellow who quickly made us feel comfortable and excited to check out their Mystical Slot Canyon with Wandering Families dinosaur tracks. While Looking for fun advenwe signed release forms, tures? Follow along as Brett asked if we would we share the best! @wanderingfamilies like to stop at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park to let the kids get some pent-up energy out. We, unanimously, agreed to do just that. We stopped there for about 30 minutes or so, but easily could have spent an entire day running, jumping and digging in the soft, cool pink sand. (side note: you can rent ATVs at the state park main entrance) All ten children jumped out of the cars, threw off their shoes and headed up the hill into the park without any hesitation.

They ran down the big hills so quickly that we couldn’t keep up and didn’t really try, since we could see them from the top. The juxtaposition between pine trees and Sahara desert-like sand is just so cool. After getting sufficiently covered in sand head-to-toe, we climbed back in the vehicles and went off-roading to the dinosaur tracks. Brett took us to one of the most concentrated section of footprints ever found. He calmly and patiently pointed out the small and large tracks and just let the kiddos run up and over the slick rock. 10 l www.swmlife.com
