Not all parks are open to all people.  Generally speaking the parks on the eastern side of the state are still open to that counties residents only.

This is from Utah State Parks website:Updated: 04/17/2020; 1:30 p.m. Park Open: Parks open to all visitors — except those state parks under local health order restrictions. Exception seems to be state parks under local health order restrictions. Not sure what this list is.

Okay folks - before you get out the celebration champagne, ONLY 20 parks are OPEN to ALL.  The other 24 parks are still open ONLY to their counties residents.  You can see what is, and what is NOT, open at this time.  East Canyon, Echo, and Rockport are still closed to non-county residents.  In the North, Bear Lake, Hyrum, Utah Lake, Willard, & Yuba are all OPEN to ALL visitors.  Several more in the South.  Go here - State Parks COVID-19 Updates - and scroll DOWN to see which parks are open and which are still closed.

Anyone know if this means the summit county reservoirs (deer creek, jordanelle, strawberry) are open or were these the ones still closed? I couldn't find clarification on those

Deer Creek & Jordanelle - still closed.  And for the one thousandth time, Strawberry is NOT a state park! And before somebody asks, neither is Pineview.

According to the map I am seeing, East Canyon, in Morgan county IS open to out of county residents.  I don't want to upset you and have your font get any bigger or brighter, and you do provide a lot of accurate information, but, I think we can go to East Canyon.  Which is noce because there is a lot of shoreline to spread out on at EC.
