Utah's Patchwork Parkway National Scenic Byway offers a diverse patchwork of colors, cultures, and climates that weave all six intrinsic qualities together along 51-mile S.R. 143

“Utah’s Patchwork Parkway offers travelers a unique patchwork of colors, cultures, and climates that weave all six intrinsic qualities together to highlight a highway worthy of National Scenic Byway Designation.”

This leaf stash delivered again this year, and like others at Duck Creek elevations, seemed to be a good week or more early. I still can’t capture how “electric” these colors look on a sunny day.

As our Summer season at Cedar Breaks nears its end, we would like to make you aware of a few important closure dates:

Point Supreme Campground closes: September 24th
Visitor Center and Restrooms close: October 13th
Night Sky Programs at Pt. Supreme end: October 19th

Even though our facilities will be closed, the park is still open 24 hours, and you are more than welcome to visit while our rangers aren't around. Visitor operations will resume in early January for our Ranger-guided snowshoe hikes!
