Located South of Price, UT.

Somewhere around here?

Looks like the general area.

Forgot to add that Price has a really great Dinosaur museum in the center of town and with it a great Native American museum.  We spent several hours there.  They kids will love it.

The only RV park is the pits though.  Pretty rough, but nothing else available for miles.  We did it, but didn't like it, only because we wanted to see what we wanted to see.

We stopped at that same campground in Price....ick. Does anyone know of a campground close to Price that's at least marginally ok? We pass through there all the time on the way to Oregon and have yet to find a good place to stop for the night.

This is great info - I love this place.

Thanks folks!

Price UT doesn't have a good campground as such.  Best choice in Price would be Walmart.

Ok, so if that is the general area, where do I look for this big hole in the ground?

Here's a Google Map Url to the Kennecott mine.

Thanks TT, that helped me find it. Certainly is a big mine.
