Sun Trapp

The SunTrapp is a gay bar and nightclub in Salt Lake City, Utah. It is considered to be the oldest gay bar in Utah. As of 2 December 2025, The SunTrapp is the first unionized bar in the state of Utah. History The SunTrapp was founded in 1973. In 2020, the SunTrapp closed for 42 days and had to restructure staff shifts during the COVID-19 pandemic. Half of staff were laid off. The business joined a lawsuit to challenge alcohol sales rules during the pandemic. In September 2025, SunTrapp Workers United, a proposed union of SunTrapp employees with the Communications Workers of America Local 7765, petitioned the owner of the bar, Mary Peterson, to voluntarily recognize the union. Shortly thereafter, Peterson fired, then rehired, several of the workers involved in the unionization drive. Unionizing workers went on an Unfair Labor Practice strike on 3 October 2025. On 31 October 2025, the SunTrapp announced that it was closing for business, citing financial strain from the ongoing strike as the reason. On 2 December 2025, The SunTrapp reopened after owner Mary Peterson voluntarily recognized the SunTrapp Workers Unite union, and striking bar staff workers returned to work. This marks the very first unionized bar in the state of Utah. References External links Official website The Sun Trapp at Salt Lake City Weekly
City Creek Park

City Creek Park is a public park in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Built in 1995, along with its companion park, the Brigham Young Historic Park, it was created to provide additional urban green space in the downtown area. Features A major feature of both City Creek Park and the Brigham Young Historic Park is a daylit portion of City Creek, an important water source for the natural flora and fauna in the area, along with the Indigenous peoples and later the early settlers of Salt Lake City. City Creek had been moved into underground pipes in this area of the city during the early twentieth century and for several decades prior to the creation of the parks, the city has desired to bring it to the surface in select areas of the community. The daylit portion of the creek begins just south of Memory Grove, its course then flows along the base of the hillside near the historic Ottinger Hall, after which it disappears under roads and reappears in landscaped medians along Canyon Road. It then flows under that road and into City Creek Park before a portion goes under Second Avenue and reemerges at the Brigham Young Historic Park, where it flows through a variety of water features. On one of the park's landscaped medians is a monument commemorating the location of Crimson Mill, the first gristmill built in Utah Territory. History of the Park Development In September 1994, Salt Lake City Mayor Deedee Corradini and H. David Burton, of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) announced two church-owned parking lots would be converted into parks. The creation of the parks was part of a land swap deal between the two entities, which had been in the works since 1988. As part of the deal, the church gave the city the northern parking lot and a payment of $2.26 million (equivalent to $4,909,183 in 2025), which the city would use to transform the property into a city park, today known as City Creek Park. The church also agreed to develop the southern parking lot into its own privately owned park, today known as the Brigham Young Historic Park. In exchange, the church was given subsurface rights under a portion of Main Street and South Temple street. It was also given title to the vacated Richards Street, whose former path ran under Crossroads Plaza. Construction and opening Construction of the park began with a groundbreaking on March 20, 1995. Both the Brigham Young Historic Park and City Creek Park were officially opened with a dedication ceremony on October 2, 1995. During the celebration, LDS Church president Gordon B. Hinckley provided a dedicatory prayer, along with joining Mayor Corradini in a ribbon cutting.

Black Rock (Great Salt Lake)

The Black Rock on Great Salt Lake near Lake Point, Utah is a historic landmark. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2021 as part of the Black Rock Site. The site includes Black Rock and foundation ruins of the former Black Rock Resort. The site was the location, in 1847, of "the first recreational bathing in the Great Salt Lake in recorded history." The ill-fated Donner Party, taking the Hastings Cutoff alternative route to California, came by in 1846. Journal entries and interviews describe the Donner Party meeting the "Hastings Trail" on the south side of the Great Salt Lake in August 1846. In later interviews Donner Party member, Reed, was quoted multiple times saying that they had met Lansford Hastings near the landmark (on the eastern border of Lake Point) known as Black Rock and that they were the ones who had given the rock its name. The rock was described in 1870 by travel guide writer Fitz Ludlow as grim and ugly, yet part of a charming scene:"A fifteen minute [horse] ride, and Black Rock rose grim and ugly, like the foundation of some ruined tower...we had expected a grim and desolate landscape; a sullen waste of brine, stagnating along low ready shores, black as Acheron, gloomy as the sepulcher of Sodom. Never had Nature a greater surprise for us. The view is one of the most charming which could be imagined." (Ludlow 1870:385) It has been depicted in landscape paintings and lithographs of many artists including Alfred Lambourne, George M. Ottinger, Waldo Midgley, James Taylor Harwood, and Albert Tissandier. The Black Rock itself measures approximately 39 feet (12 m) tall upon an approximate 130 by 60 feet (40 m × 18 m) base. Over the years, it has been an isolated rock out in the lake, or upon a peninsula into the lake. While the Black Rock is entirely in Tooele County, the entire site listed is an area about 300 by 800 feet (91 m × 244 m) and spans into Salt Lake County.

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park

Der Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park ist ein State Park im Süden Utahs an der Straße 43, nicht weit von der Stadt Kanab entfernt. Der Park wurde 1963 gegründet. Eine Einkerbung zwischen den Moquith- und Moccasin-Bergen verursacht eine Erhöhung der Windgeschwindigkeit, welche stark genug ist, um erodierten Navajo-Sandstein mitzureißen. Dieses Phänomen ist unter der Bezeichnung Venturi-Effekt bekannt. Wenn der Wind dann nach der Einkerbung das offene Tal erreicht, verringert sich die Geschwindigkeit wieder und der Sand wird dort abgelagert. Der Park liegt in einer Höhe von rund 1800 m. Dadurch gibt es relativ viel Niederschlag, welcher dafür sorgt, dass einige Tiere und Pflanzen im Park heimisch sind. An Pflanzen kommen unter anderem Kiefern, Dünengräser (welche bis zu 180 cm groß werden können) und Wildblumen vor, deren Blütezeit im Juni liegt. Die Tierwelt wird von Rotwild, Kojoten, Füchsen, Kaninchen und kleineren Nagetieren vertreten. Durch schmelzenden Schnee bilden sich kleine Teiche, welche Lebensraum für Salamander und Kröten bilden. Eine Besonderheit ist der Coral-Pink-Tigerkäfer, eine Unterart der Sandlaufkäfer, welche ausschließlich in diesem State Park vorkommt. Rund 107 ha des Parkes stehen unter besonderem Schutz, um den Lebensraum dieses Käfers zu erhalten. Weitere 485 ha des Parks sind für die Benutzung von Quads und ähnlichen Fahrzeugen freigegeben. In folgenden Filmen diente der Park als Kulisse: Arabian Nights (1942), Ali Baba und die 40 Räuber (1943), Timbuktu (1958), MacKenna's Gold (1969), One Little Indian (1973).

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park is a state park in southwestern Utah, United States, located between Mount Carmel Junction and Kanab, south and west of U.S. Highway 89 in Kane County. The park features uniquely pink-hued sand dunes located beside red sandstone cliffs. The dunes are formed from the erosion of pink-colored Navajo Sandstone surrounding the park. High winds passing through the notch between the Moquith and Moccasin Mountains pick up loose sand particles and then drop them onto the dunes as a result of the Venturi effect. The dunes are estimated to be between 10,000 and 15,000 years old. The park allows camping, hiking, off-road vehicle driving, and photography. There is a conservation area of 265 acres (1.07 km2), and the total grounds include 3,370 acres (13.6 km2). It was established as a Utah state park in 1963. Sandboarding is also a popular activity, sandboards and sand sleds can be rented directly at the park. The Coral Pink Sand Dunes tiger beetle (Cicindela albissima) is endemic to the dunes, being found nowhere else in the world. The park also contains most of the remaining individuals of the rare plant known as Welsh's milkweed (Asclepias welshii), a federally listed threatened species.

Parc d'État de Coral Pink Sand Dunes

Le parc d'État de Coral Pink Sand Dunes (en anglais Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park) est un parc d'État américain situé dans l'État de l'Utah et créé en 1963. Il est réputé pour ses dunes de sable surmontées de falaises de grès rouge. Les dunes sont formées par l’érosion du grès Navajo de couleur rose qui entoure le parc. Localisation Le site du parc d'État est proche de la frontière de l'Utah avec l'Arizona, au sud-ouest de l'État. Il est situé à une altitude de 1800 mètres. Il se trouve à 64 km du parc national de Zion et 32 km de Kanab, au sud de la U.S. Route 89. Il a une superficie de 15 km2. Histoire Les dunes sont âgées de 10 000 à 15 000 ans. Le film La Plus Grande Histoire jamais contée d'Ed Wynn y a été tourné à cause de la ressemblance du paysage avec l'Égypte. Géologie Les montagnes Moquith à l'est et des montagnes Moccasin au nord entourent le site. Le sable provient de l'érosion des roches quand le vent passe entre les 2 chaînes de montagnes. Faune et flore On peut y observer des lézards épineux, des cerfs hémiones, des lièvres, des renards nains, des coyotes et des rongeurs. La végétation sur les dunes regroupe des pins ponderosas, des hautes herbes et des fleurs sauvages au printemps. Informations touristiques Le parc est accessible à 19 km de la U.S. Route 89 depuis Kanab. Le tarif du parc est de 8 $ pour un véhicule et 14 $ pour une nuit en camping. Des excursions sur les dunes sont permises à pied, en quad ou en véhicule tout-terrain. Un sentier entretenu de 800 mètres informe les visiteurs sur les plantes et les dunes. 229 000 visiteurs s'y sont rendus en 2022.

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park

Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park is een State Park gelegen tussen Mount Carmel Junction en Kanab in het zuidwesten van de Amerikaanse staat Utah. Het park heeft zandduinen gelegen naast rode zandstenen rotsen. In het park bevinden zich korrels van kwarts met een oranje buitenlaag van hematiet. De duinen zijn ontstaan uit de erosie van de roze gekleurde Navajo Zandsteen rond het park. Hoge winden tussen de Moquith en Moccasin bergen halen losse deeltjes zand op om die vervolgens te deponeren op de duinen. De duinen zijn naar schatting tussen de 10.000 en 15.000 jaar oud. Het park heeft een oppervlakte van 13,6 km² en werd opgericht in 1968. Externe links Coral Pink Sand Dunes
