From alpine forests at Sundance to Moab’s red-rock cathedrals, from Bryce’s sculpted hoodoos to Zion’s towering cliffs, Utah is a wonderland built for storytelling. This TGA Brand Adventure is your canvas: sunrise at Delicate Arch, switchbacks down Shafer Trail, waterfalls in Escalante, golden hour over Bryce, e-biking through Zion Canyon, and UTVing across Sand Hollow’s dunes to “Top of the World.” With only 10–15 creators, you’ll camp under stars, test sponsor gear where it matters most, and capture the kind of content that makes audiences stop scrolling.
But this trip is about more than adventure—it’s about impact. Utah’s national parks and public lands are living stories of stewardship, access, and legacy. Alongside rangers, outfitters, and locals, you’ll learn what it takes to protect these places while documenting their beauty. As a creator, you’ll leave with unforgettable memories, gear-tested content, and stories that inspire audiences to explore and advocate for the wild.
Checkin for the night. Nestled at the base of Mount Timpanogos, Sundance Resort is the perfect gateway to Utah’s wild beauty. Settle into your room, take in the alpine air, and prepare for the adventure ahead.
Before the journey begins, you’ll be outfitted with sponsor gear designed for real-world testing. This is where content creation starts—unboxing, setting up, and capturing first impressions.
Gather with fellow creators for a family-style meal that sets the tone for the week. It’s a chance to connect, swap goals, and toast to the days ahead.
Strap in for a rugged ride down one of Utah’s most famous trails. The 1,500-foot descent twists through switchbacks and red-rock walls, offering epic views and adrenaline-pumping content.
Along the way, you’ll pause at iconic overlooks where the desert seems endless. These moments are built for capturing sweeping drone shots, timeless photos, and short-form storytelling.
That evening, camp in rooftop overland tents beneath one of the clearest night skies in the world. With stars blazing overhead, it’s a chance to practice astrophotography and enjoy fireside connection.
Hike before dawn to witness Utah’s most iconic landmark as the sun lights the horizon. The golden glow on the arch is one of the most sought-after shots in the American West.
Stop to explore Ute petroglyphs and the historic Wolfe Ranch cabin. These cultural touchpoints bring depth and history to your storytelling.
In the afternoon, wander through Goblin Valley’s bizarre hoodoos and mushroom-like rock formations. The alien-like landscape feels like another planet, giving your content a surreal edge.
After exploring Goblin Valley, the journey continues through the heart of Capitol Reef, one of Utah’s hidden gems. This drive winds past towering red cliffs, rugged canyons, and orchards planted by early pioneers, offering countless photo stops along the way. Depending on timing, you’ll have the chance for a short hike or viewpoint stop—perfect for capturing the park’s dramatic landscapes before continuing on toward Escalante.
End the day camping in Escalante, where silence, starlight, and raw wilderness create the perfect reset.
Trek through the Escalante canyons to reach a 126-foot waterfall cascading into a desert oasis. The hike rewards you with refreshing pools and a breathtaking natural backdrop.
Refuel beside the falls with a laid-back picnic. There’s time to swim, shoot, and rest before the afternoon drive.
