Help power the National Parks Traveler’s coverage of national parks and protected areas.
Concessions are the backbone of the National Park System. True, the National Park Service manages the parks and the wildlife and the visitors, but the concessionaires provide you with a bed, or campsite, to sleep in, restaurants to dine in, and gift shops to browse in.
Xanterra Parks and Resorts is one of the key players in the national park concessions industry. They operate lodges in Yellowstone, Crater Lake, Death Valley, Glacier, Grand Canyon and, until the end of this year, Zion National Park.
Just where will that park road take you? Perhaps through the eastern portion of Zion National Park along the Zion-Mt. Carmel Road? You'll drive past ancient, lithified, cross-bedded sand dunes in saturated colors of orange, pink, and beige, on your way toward Checkerboard Mesa.
