Tuesday and Saturday flights to and from Utah

We arrived near noon Tuesday so had a productive day driving toward Bryce Canyon, NP.

In 1988, in our motorhome we stopped in Richfield, Utah. Tuesday, September 17, 2024, we were back. The town was hosting an International Offroad Rally.  We saw 30 to 60 fancy four seat vehicles. Some on trailers, some driving on the street going back and forth. 

The next morning, we continued on to Bryce Canyon National Park until noon and then to the East entrance of Zion National Park in the afternoon.  Both are impressive, but Zion has an immensity I am unable to describe.

For me the driver it also has a LONG unlit tunnel.  The real issue was transition from brilliant bright sunlight to dark.  

Following we collected Nevada and the city of Salt Lake on other days. A bit of a zoom zoom visit but number of days was fine. 

Driving in Utah gives constant changes in scenery and vistas. All vistas of their own character.

THE END

p.s. for Troy. We had an excellent spur of the moment 25-minute tour and missionary conversation with a Morman History Library guide. Pleasent lady widow and living for two years in Salt Lake City at her own expense. A professional photographer and blessed with having adult children within fifty miles.

She was doing her two-year missionary tasking and at least two of her children had done the same prior.

Fabulous building with twelve archival vaults, off limits to almost everyone.
