Cedar City, UT to Salt Lake City







We are so confused as to what time it is! AZ doesn't use Daylight Savings Time, so while they are on Mtn. Time it is 1 hour earlier in AZ. Then when you go into NV you're on Pacific Time, then back into AZ then into UT where they are on Mtn. Daylight Saving Time and we've change our clocks and watches so many time we're afraid of wearing them out!


But I digress...Today we drove North on I-15 through the Great Basin from south western Utah to Salt Lake City. Saw so many changes in topography-mtns. changed color as the miles progressed. In the 1st hour on the road we saw a tumbleweed blow across the road in front of us, we saw prairie dogs beside the highway, and snow on the peaks to the East-incredible! Am not sure what I expected to see along the way into Salt Lake City, but it sure isn't as I had imagined it! Huge mountians just to the east, flat as far as the eye could see to the west, and snow on the peaks to the North! Amazing! Presently we're getting ready to endure a thunder storm and the camper is shaking in the wind! We're in a huge KOA Resort just north of downton SLC -expect to stay here for a couple of days to explore the area. Am going to try to include photos I took from the car today...
