Outing Highlights

THE LANDSCAPE

Bryce‑like rock formations without the crowds

On the far side of the mountain the terrain yields the same sculpted rock formations you associate with Bryce Canyon, but with far fewer visitors — a raw, open landscape best experienced from an ATV.

THE WILDLIFE

A longer route tuned for sightings

This tour is longer than the solo Radio Tower Vista option and carries a high probability of significant wildlife viewing, giving guides and guests more time to find and observe animals in their ranchland habitats.

THE ROUTE

Per‑vehicle groups and a more immersive ride

Priced per vehicle and run with up to two vehicles per departure, the tour is designed for small groups who want an extended, hands‑on ATV/UTV exploration of Heaton Ranch.

What the day feels like

What the tour feels like

The Radio Tower/Wildlife Tour trades the bustle of Bryce for open ridgelines and rock sculptures you can approach by ATV. Over the course of the outing you spend more time off the main viewpoints, increasing chances to spot wildlife and to take in the sculpted geology with a small group of friends.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this tour is best for—and who should consider alternatives.

Small friend groupsIdeal for groups of friends traveling together: pricing and seating are per vehicle (up to 5 per vehicle), and operators can run up to two vehicles so groups up to 10 travel together.

Wildlife watchersA strong match for travelers focused on wildlife observation—the Wildlife Tour is longer than the solo Radio Tower Vista outing and carries a high probability of sightings.

Rider groupsSuited to guests who want an extended ATV/UTV riding experience; the pricing structure and vehicle capacity favor those booking whole vehicles rather than single seats.

Large partiesNot ideal for very large parties unless you arrange multiple vehicle bookings in advance—operator capacity is limited to two vehicles (10 people) per tour.
