We stayed 5 nights here in Panguitch, UT. This is a small
town with only one flashing, four-way stop, but three campgrounds, four gas
stations, several motels and restaurants. The town is in a beautiful valley
surrounded by mountains. Seems like all
the locals have ATV’s and ride them around on the highway with the cars and trucks;
but then the ATV’s can just head up onto the mountain trails which are
plentiful in the area. We’re about 35
miles from Cedar Breaks National Monument, 20 miles from Red Canyon National
Monument, 30 miles from Bryce Canyon Nat’l Park, 80 miles from Zion Nat’l Park,
and 111 miles to Capital Reef National Park.
Panguitch is a terrific find and jumping off point for exploring. Our campground owners moved here two years
ago from Minnesota after buying the Hitch-N-Post RV Park. We loved our stay
here and Panguitch is a place we could live in!

These folks locked their keys in their rental car here in the Cedar Breaks Visitor Center Parking lot. A local town Marshal had been called to give them a hand and I'm holding into a wedge while the Marshal tries pushing the lock button with a coat hanger...... A call to the rental company 200 miles away was zero help. They ended up calling a locksmith in nearby Cedar City (35 miles). Service Call and new Key about $400 ... A tough lesson. A brick thru the window may have been cheaper, especially if they purchased the insurance.
