Ticaboo (/ˈtɪkəbuː/ TIK-ə-boo) is an unincorporated community in far southeastern Garfield County, Utah, United States.
[5] The Ticaboo townsite is a master-planned community that was organized in the late 1970s to both provide housing to the then booming uranium mining industry in southeastern Garfield County, and tap into the tourism potential of nearby Lake Powell.
In October 1981, the Division of Utah State History conducted an excavation of a small settlement known as the Ticaboo Town Ruins, located directly west of the town of Ticaboo.
Established in 1977, Plateau Resources Limited was the master development lease holder[8] and constructed the infrastructure that still exists today for electric, water, and wastewater.
Ticaboo is on Utah State Route 276, which is a part of the Trail of the Ancients National Scenic Byway.
