Located in the central area of the state of Utah around 150 miles Southeast of Salt Lake City is the small historic community of Castle Dale. Nestled between the Manti-La Sal National Forest and the Cedar Mountain Recreational Area this sparsely populated area of the state offers an abundance of natural beauty. The area offers spectacular scenery including the Little Grand Canyon, Moab, Sid’s Mountain and more. Like other communities in this area known as Castle Country, the major economic base is farming and livestock raising as well as coal mining. The rugged natural beauty of this desert landscape blends well with the lifestyle of the rugged individuals that live there.
