The playgrounds are neat because they are unique and unusual and not the same old run of the mill stuff. The only reason i gave this park 4 instead of 5 stars is ive noticed there may be a bit of drug activity going on but it seems to be the same small crowd of people and the south salt lake police are very good at their jobs so I dont expect the problem...
