Well, I will just say that the drive was long and mostly un-interesting, except for the crazy weather. There was snow along both sides of the road as we headed into Utah, some winds and such. At one point we saw sleet and were driving in slush. The truck got covered in salt from the semis passing us and splashing rocks and slush onto the windshield. (see pic) The traffic was crazy through the Salt Lake corridor with lots of construction and narrow passages against stone barriers.We were snowed on and passed large snow drifts as we passed from Provo to Green River through the pass, but the road stayed clear. We dodged a few major rain storms after the pass and before the park, one of which you can see in the picture. The storms were Enormous! It's called the Wild West for a reason!
We made much better time this day, made fewer stops, and pulled into an RV park in lateafternoon. The park had a view of the park, and we could see an arch or two in the far distance.
I think wife.01 and I stayed at that Moab RV park in 2008 during my sabbatical, it is at the junction that leads to Canyonlands, 10 miles N of Moab, right? Did you get sunrise shots of the schoolhouse?
