SALT LAKE CITY — To avoid suffering major FOMO during this weekend's big solar eclipse, several Utah state parks are holding events to make sure everyone gets a chance to see the"Ring of Fire."Starting early Saturday morning, a wide swath of central and southern Utah will be directly in the path of the annular eclipse in which the moon will nearly block out the sun, leaving just a stunning ring of light.
The moon will start its slow journey across the sun beginning around 9 a.m. MST, so those looking to catch a good glimpse should plan early as many places are expected to be extremely crowded.Below are the Utah State Parks holding eclipse events, with some more intricate than others.While the events are mainly free, many of the parks have entry fees and in some locations, annual passes will not be accepted.
