Fall Vacation 2009, Day 6



Day 6 found us traveling north and east, heading for Cedar breaks National Monument. What we didn't realize is that Cedar Breaks is located in the mountains, at over 10,000 feet! That made for some very pretty traveling.



Cedar Breaks is like a mini-Bryce Canyon, but at 10,000 feet, where it freezes 300 nights of the year, and they get 15 feet of snow in the winter.




As we were finishing up the short scenic drive, a snow storm started moving in. But we didn't let that deter us! We continued up ti the highest point in those parts before descending to I-15, and circling back to the South, and taking a last pass through Zion Canyon.



To be continued...
