Today, we’re heading to the heart of the Colorado Plateau, a region known for its dramatic landscapes shaped by erosion and geological processes, to explore the least visited national park in the state of Utah – Canyonlands National Park. In this episode we discuss some of the fascinating features of the park, some plants and animals, learn about the history of the park, discuss the geology and the rivers, canyons, mesas, and buttes, and have some recommendations for exploring the park. We end with an activity from the Junior Ranger program.
Junior Rangers are explorers, learning all about the park’s ecosystems, plants and animals, and how to protect nature. The Junior Ranger program is not just for kids; it's for the young, and the young at heart!
A Special Thanks to Canyonlands National Park!
