Price (Utah)

To the northeast Nine Mile Canyon features some of the best ancient rock art in the state. Further east the Green River carves canyons through the desert offering some whitewater rafting opportunities. South lies the northern portion of the San Rafael Swell with some wonderful scenic drives and backcountry hiking opportunities for the adventurous. To the west are the forested highlands of the Wasatch Plateau offering some pleasant scenic drives, hiking and mountain biking opportunities in a cool alpine setting. Price and surrounding areas was once the playground of the dinosaurs. Today it's a playground for dinosaur enthusiasts! Only here will you see the actual dinosaurs in the area where they were found. Plus, area museums have new species that are not on exhibit anywhere else in the world.

The granddaddy of Castle Country's golf courses. Natural sandstone bluffs and shale cliffs surround an 18-hole championship golf course. The Price River runs through the front nine holes. The back nine features a waterfall and hidden Indian rock art above the 18th fairway. The Carbon Country Club greens are very well maintained. A pro shop with a snack bar and a fine restaurant make the golfing experience complete.
