"2023 Solar Eclipse: A Guide to Watching Safely in the U.S."

Thirteen Utah state parks will be within the full coverage zone of the upcoming annular solar eclipse, with six others just outside it. All of Utah will experience a significant amount of sun coverage, weather permitting, during the event on October 14. State parks such as Escalante Petrified Forest, Fremont Indian, Goblin Valley, and Goosenecks will offer eclipse events. Antelope Island and Dead Horse Point State Parks, although outside the direct path, will also have special events. NASA has provided the times for viewing the eclipse in Utah, and officials advise planning ahead for crowds and traffic, as well as bringing protective eyewear.
