About David Read

My wife and I have been married for over 27 years and have 5 wonderful children. We have been avid campers our whole lives. Some of our best memories as a family have been made sitting around a campfire roasting marshmallows. We have 2 dogs and a slew of other small pets. One place that regularly calls to us is camping in Goblin Valley State Park (Utah) in the fall. We love going down and camping on BLM land (Temple Mountain Road just north of Goblin Valley) in October when the days are warm and the nights are crisp and cool. So many hikes nearby as well as incredible sights to see. Utah is an amazing place for just about any outdoor recreational activity you could possibly want and we are excited to share those adventures with you. Not only are there endless camping opportunities in Utah, but we are surrounded by natures wonders in all directions. To the north we have the crown jewel of the national park system, Yellowstone/Grand Teton national Parks. To the east we have the Rocky Mountains. To the south we have the red rock deserts of the American Southwest including Monument Valley, Canyonlands, Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capital Reef, Zions, and Grand Canyon National Parks. To the west lies the Great Basin National Park as well as the rest of Nevada and California. In addition to all those treasures are the countless National Forests, BLM land, and state parks that offer their own unique experiences.
