Spring Mountain Ranch State Park

Once owned by Howard Hughes, this former working ranch is now a state park where you can take a quick hike, bond with some wild burros or enjoy a picnic lunch. But by far the best reason to visit it is Super Summer Theatre, which takes over the lawn on summer evenings for musicals performed by local casts. Grab a bottle of wine, some snacks and a patch of grass and prepare to be entertained. When the sun is setting over the canyon walls, there’s no better seat in town.
