Title: Cedar Breaks UT trip - October 2021
Post by: PeterNSteinmetz on October 12, 2021, 07:56:41 PM
For fall this year we decided to go see the colors in SW Utah and visit Cedar Breaks National Monument and Brian Head.

I have been blessed recently that my wife has decided that she will simply start flying with me in small planes and actually is taking lessons to learn how to land. This provides a lot more opportunities to travel together. This trip really benefits from a small plane because you can fly right over the Grand Canyon, rather than having to drive all the way around it.

Very nice pics.  We overflew the Grand Canyon in May when we visited Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico.  Thirty one years ago we drove from Atlanta to Las Vegas to get married and we spent a couple of days touring the Canyon.  No matter how you slice it, or fly or drive it, it instills a sense of awe every time.
