Cedar Mountain
Just a portion of the immense national forest, but perhaps
two of the most popular areas of Dixie National Forest is Cedar
Mountain and
Red Canyon.
Multiple-use management: Forest Service
The Forest Service uses multiple-use management guidelines. This means
that they manage resources in a way that benefits the people,
while ensuring the productivity of the land and protecting the quality of the
environment.
Focus of the National Park Service
The National Park Service focuses on preservation and education. It serves
the people in another way, preserving the natural and cultural resources within
their boundaries. The state park system is
similar to that of the national parks, but since they are managed on a state
level they have fewer restrictions and different rules.
Just for Fun
There is so much to do in the forest. There are mountain bike trails, hiking trails, backpacking, camping, swimming, fishing, ATV trails, snowmobile trails, caves to explore, wildflowers to smell, lava rock to checkout, Junior Ranger program and nighttime ranger programs in Cedar Breaks. Be sure to see Duck Creek Village, Navajo Lake, Duck Creek and drive out to the many side roads to see unexpected treasures.
