East Canyon State Park, State park and reservoir in Morgan County, United States.
East Canyon State Park features a 608-acre reservoir surrounded by narrow-walled canyons at 5,700 feet elevation in northeastern Utah mountains.
The construction of East Canyon Dam from 1964 to 1966 created this 259-foot-high concrete structure that forms part of the Weber Basin Project.
The park contains segments of the Mormon Pioneer Trail, marking the path of religious settlers who traveled 1,300 miles from Illinois to Utah.
The park provides 33 RV campsites with hookups, concrete boat ramps, restrooms, showers, fish cleaning stations, and two group pavilions for visitors.
As an International Dark Sky Park since 2020, the location offers exceptional opportunities for astronomical observation due to minimal light interference.
