Manhattan Project National Historical Park
Historical place
πŸ‘ This was a bit hard to plan out, due to the actual site and the national park visitor center being closed the day I went. That being said, there is still a lot to see and do. You will want to plan out several hours to see it all, everything is within walking distance of each other. The first stop I...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great place for family outdoor activities. Get a game of volleyball going or play some tennis. And if you want a good place to walk some laps for exercise or just a leisure walk then you're set with a path that goes around the perimeter of the park.

Mitchell Trailhead
Hiking area
πŸ‘πŸ‘ My family and I used this trail to get to the Natural Arch (see pic), and it was great! We used Alltrails, and it describes the trial as moderate, 1.7 mi treck. For the most part it was, up until you get to the foot of the mountain. Its actually a very tricky climb, and extreme caution needs to be t...

Hiking area
πŸ‘πŸ‘ A relatively easy hike - you are following a train system on the top of several mesas, so hardly any elevation changes along the way - with breathtaking views. A little bit of rock climbing is needed, but it's not bad and rather fun. So if you have a couple free hours, grab a big bottle of water and...

Ashley Pond
Lake
πŸ‘πŸ‘ If a man named Ashley tells you this is his private swimming hole, he is wrong. Little known fact, this pond was originally formed by a meteor impact over a thousand years ago! The crater did not hold water due to a natural cave system, but the Boy's School used the site as a burial ground for thei...
