Looking for a Utah getaway that blends adventure, history, and stunning scenery? The Carbon Corridor SPX GeoTour (GT4D7) is your next must-do adventure.

Nestled in a lesser-traveled region of Utah, the Carbon Corridor SPX GeoTour features 35 geocaches at the region’s most scenic viewpoints, mining towns, dinosaur digs, and art-filled streets—while reminding visitors to explore responsibly and leave no trace.

Five reasons to visit the Carbon Corridor

1. Stunning scenery around every corner
Whether you’re hiking, caching, or just taking in the views, the Carbon Corridor delivers on natural beauty. Think petroglyphs in Nine Mile Canyon, the rugged San Rafael Swell, and the winding turns of the Energy Loop Scenic Byway—all perfect backdrops for exploration.

2. A journey through living history
Many geocaches are tucked near ghost towns, old railroads, and mining relics that tell the story of Utah’s roots. It’s history you can literally walk through—and log, of course.

3. Art everywhere you look
In towns like Helper, creativity is part of the landscape. Explore murals, sculptures, and galleries that reflect the area’s quirky charm. Visiting in August? Don’t miss the annual Helper Arts Festival.

4. Dinosaur discovery central
As part of the Dinosaur Diamond Prehistoric Highway, the Corridor is a paradise for fossil lovers. Be sure to stop by the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum to see real fossils and ancient artifacts up close.

5. Out-of-this-world stargazing
Clear skies, low light pollution, and wide-open spaces make for unforgettable nights. Helper is even recognized as an International Dark Sky Community, making it an ideal location for stargazing and dark-sky photography.

Start your journey at the Visitor Center inside the USU Eastern Prehistoric Museum. While you’re there, you can pick up a GeoTour passport, purchase a GeoTour geocoin, and dive into dino history.
