South to Utah and Flaming Gorge & Red Canyon


On the way to Utah… Big land. Big country.

Last place to stop in Wyoming… would have been a sentimental stop for Sally n me, but closed up. Summer season begins after Memorial Day. This is perfect time to visit, if you don’t mind lots of things being closed.

Interesting motto: “Life elevated.”  Could have been “Live high.”

First stop in Utah, a cozy gun-friendly eatery. Great burger; super friendly server. Hope they’re not high.

So.. Flaming Gorge is truly amazing. First the byway.

Then the real thing.  No commentary needed.

The Red Canyon is at least as spectacular as the Grand one. Amazing hardly anyone has heard of it. Maybe the locals prefer it that way.
