Along Utah’s historic highway 12 HC travels, white knuckling the drive over the more terrifying bits. All worth it though as he finds remote scenic vistas covered in snow. A welcome sight for a desert rat.

He comes to the tiny town of Boulder, with no locals to be found. Perhaps it was a Sunday and everyone was at church, HC can’t recall what day of the week it was. Turning left, he connects to the Burr trail southern terminus, and so the adventure begins towards Waterpocket Folds.

From epic boulders to Red Rock canyons, HC drives the lonely road. When he arrives to the valley of Waterpocket Folds, the energy emanating heals his cells.
