A wet winter has made ‘very impressive’ waterfalls at this Utah state park

Residents in southwest Utah are watching rivers and creeks, hoping they don’t create floods. But at Gunlock State Park, they are smiling at the flows.

The wet winter has created “very impressive” waterfalls at Gunlock State Park, according to a post on Facebook by Utah State Parks. The waterfalls occur most springs when Gunlock Reservoir overflows, but the photos posted on social media show especially strong flows over multiple red rock ledges.

It's happening!

The waterfalls at Gunlock State Park are currently active. This is a rare event and worth visiting.
