Zion National Park’s scenery is ”huge and up in the air and distant and impersonal,” and the taco bar in the lodge restaurant is boring.
And Antelope Island is “out of a horror movie,” “hellish,” “one of the worst experiences of our lives” and it “smells like a wet dog’s butt.”
Utah’s natural wonders generally win high praise from visitors, but not everyone is convinced. Every so often, for entertainment, I check in at Yelp and Trip Advisor to see the one-star reviews and chortle at the travel miseries of people who think Nine Mile Canyon is “a total waste of time” and Kodachrome Basin State Park ”was about as interesting and exciting as driving thru a Walmart parking lot except you have to pay to get in.
