Great Basin National Park is just over the Western border of Utah near the town of Baker Nevada. Great Basin was established a National Park in 1986 when Lehman Caves National Monument was combined with the surrounding mountains and forest. The park preserves a small representative piece of the Great Basin region of the United States, a watershed which includes portions of 5 Western states.
