Glad we can help, HogGlider ... here's a few more pics to help whet your whistle ...



I'm not afraid of heights, but standing on the edge of the cliff at Bryce Canyon National Park did put a little pucker in the ol' cheeks.

Next one is along Highway 12 in Utah ...



And my favorite ... from Highway 14 leading from 89 over the pass to Cedar City ...

Those pictures are absolutely amazing doc_cj. That first picture looks like you could have sat there for a long time just looking out on the land.

When your coming south on 12 you will hit boulder (utah) and there is a road called the burr trail. Even though this road turn to gravel and you have to turn around you will not believe it. I am sure if you take this shot detour you will definately be e-mailing me next year to thank me. Also there is a great days inn in torrey...great rates and breakfast. Bryce Canyon National Park before you hit the Zion is an amazing stop. Go to the very last view point and work your way back...you won't have to cross traffic all the time. If you have time for Colorado there are some must rides there also.....

Jeff

IT'S RARELY THE DESTINATION...BUT IT'S ALWAYS THE JOURNEY!!!

jm thanks for letting them know about that stretch of the road along the lake, I was on it this summer and yes sir it is shitty......it was so rough I actually slowed almost to a crawl to get through.

Hey if you hook up with these guys let me know, I am always looking for a ride.
