St George Travel Information
St. George is southern Utah's largest city. It occupies an attractive
stretch
of green beneath red rock cliffs in Utah's desert southwest. Its
pleasant winter
weather attracts a large number of "snowbirds" from the north, who
stay for extended
periods in the winter while their neighbors back home get socked.
("Utah's summer
spends the winter in St. George" its promoters say.)
St. George has some interesting historic buildings, lots of golf
courses and plenty of shopping. Nearby is pretty Snow Canyon State
Park (10 miles northwest) and the pleasant alpine wilderness of the
Pine Valley Mountains (38 miles north). St. George also works as a
base from which to visit Zion National Park (40 miles northeast).
Recreational activities of a different sort are available at the
casinos in Mesquite, Nevada (30 miles southwest). View
