Cedar Breaks Prepares for Winter Recreation Season

As another season of spectacular fall colors begins to fade, operations at Cedar Breaks are gearing up for the transition to winter recreation.  The campground has closed for the year, and as of Monday, October 13th, the staff will close the visitor center and restrooms to begin preparing the park’s utility systems and buildings for winter conditions.  All of these facilities will reopen in the spring.

However, the spectacular sights in Cedar Breaks can still be enjoyed.  All overlooks, hiking trails and the main park road will remain open for visitors to drive through the park free of charge until closed by the first major storm, normally in late November or early December.  Fall storms can bring high winds and snow. For current road conditions please call UDOT Road Conditions at 1-800-492-2400.  As soon as the road closes to vehicular traffic and the snow deepens, the park will remain open throughout the winter for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling on designated trails.  Call the park at 435-586-9451 for additional information.
