Nevada - Utah - Colorado
The trails and trees are behind us now. It’s I-70 to I-64 to home. But there’s still some spectacular scenery here.
Nevada - Utah - Colorado
The trails and trees are behind us now. It’s I-70 to I-64 to home. But there’s still some spectacular scenery here.

| As we left Great Basin National Park, we could see past the mountains to the next basin. |
 |
| A better look at the basin plains. |
 |
| The left mountain in the first photo is clearly made up of different rocks than the rest of the park along Wheeler Peak Scenic Drive. |
 |
| In Utah, we passed along the shore of Sevier Lake, which looked more like a salt flat than a lake. |
 |
| Eroded rocks along I-70 in Utah. |
 |
| Utah has a number of scenic pull-outs along I-70. This is a panorama from Sand Bench View. |

| Spotted Wolf Canyon View panorama. |
 |
| I-70 goes through Spotted Wolf Canyon. Before the road came through, this canyon was so narrow that a person could touch both sides simultaneously with outstretched arms. |
 |
| The sun was setting as we made it to Colorado, so we went through the Rockies in the dark. |
