There are some great natural wonders, colors and sights in Garfield county; located at Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef national parks and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National monument as well as at Kodachrome Basin, Scenic Byway 12 and the San Rafael Desert. Panguitch, a bright and shiny historic town, is itself in the valley between the Markagunt and Pausaugunt Plateaus. The city name is derived from the Native American expression for Big Fish. Indeed the lake in the nearby mountains is known for its large rainbow trout and a place where anglers can catch fish the year round. The Canyon Country Complex, in Panguitch, is the scene of rodeos, concerts, horse racing and other equestrian competitions, sports competitions and conventions. There are several annual festivals taking place in this city, which draw tourists from all over; the Quilt Walk festival, the Panquitch Valley Balloon Rally and Homecomung Day.
