Utah Virtual Forest Tours
These "tours" are actual routes through forested areas in Utah that follow nationally designated Scenic Byways (click here to link to the America's Byways web site). These virtual tours highlight points of interest along the scenic byway with pictures and descriptions of forests and forestry topics. GPS coordinates are available, as well as topographic maps. Use the tour by itself or couple it with a visit to the area to learn more about Utah's forests.
