While in Utah, you might enjoy a visit to:

No one knows where Old Sorrel is buried, or even when he died, but he's remembered with a heroic bronze sculpture.

The collection includes over sixty military aircraft and missiles -- and oil paintings of same.

A homemade effort to fashion thunder lizards out of old car parts, along with other rusting junk characters.

A statue that used to be a man in chains holding a cup aloft; now it's a Native American with a knife.

Celebrates a time when "Going Postal" meant taking a long ride on horseback.

Philo Farnsworth was born in a log cabin nearby in 1906. He left southern Utah to invent the television, but his achievements are honored in Beaver with a bronze statue identical to ones that stand in Salt Lake City and Washington, DC.
