Country Escape to the Cool Oasis: Torrey and Boulder, Utah's Hidden Gems Summer in Red Rock Country

When Utahns think of the towns of Torrey and Boulder, Utah, they tend to think of them as “southern Utah”, with the heat and tourist-filled national parks and monuments one might expect. But nothing could be further from the truth. The weather in Red Rock Country — particularly in July and August — is actually more similar to Park City than Moab due to elevation, which means it’s often 10 to 15 degrees cooler than the neighboring Big 5 destinations.
