Utah National Parks

[kstock11]

Have you looked into the National Forests in Utah? Most allow dogs on the trails- although they request they be on a leash. I live in the east and hike both the National Park as well as National Forests. The forests are much more flexible than the parks.

I am not a current Escape owner, but plan to buy following my retirement at the end of this year, most likely the 19, but the 21 looks very inviting.

Agreed, we now avoid the American National Parks because of the lack of acceptance of dogs. What a shame. At least in the winter we can leave our buddy in the car for an hour, but not in the heat of summer. Oh well, come to Canada where dogs in National Parks, on a leash, are welcome!
