Across Utah (I-70)
A 2nd day of oohs and aahs as we drive up over the mountains from Richfield, UT to Moab, UT. Mountains, mesa, cliffs, viewpoints, and so much to see. Here is a typical winding roadway seeming to snake through the mountains.
A rest area with views unbelievable. You could just turn around 180 degrees and have another beautiful sight.
Climb, climb....even when the road semed to be level or dropping my GPS said we were climbing. We topped out here....
The colors in the rocks were so vivid, so strong. They ranged from this red to yellow, brown, green and blue as well as grey. It was a beautiful day.
The temps allowed us to run with open windows and no generator until later in the trip when we dropped back down to 4,000 feet to enter the road to Moab.
