I hear some people really like to go up through emigration canyon, over Big Mountain pass to East Canyon Reservoir, then back. Uh...that sounds like too much work... What is that, like a 40 mile round trip? Something like that. I know of cars that don't make it over that pass. I know I won't be able to make it up there for a while yet. Like a few years. Tandem...with a stronger cyclist... And maybe a triple front ring... |

I can't imagine living out there, even though it is beautiful. No trees. After growing up in PA and living in MI and MN, I don't think I could live anywhere that doesn't have trees. |

Which is why Brigham Young sent settlers to the island. That and the church herds. givemashot - 2008-09-26 2:05 PM It's weird because the Garr ranch out there was apparently one of my ancestors.

We came down into SLC through Emmigration Canyon about 11pm at night with construction going on. It was scary in a CAR! |

Master 3479 Utah | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) sparco - 2008-09-26 1:15 PM Ah, yes. Emigration is north of Parley's (I-80). Remember the reservoir you passed about half way to SLC? Emigration comes out on the west side of that, then you go north to Big Mountain. And up. Sorry. Correction. We came down I-80. There was construction all the way from the top of the pass dwon to 215. |

Master 3479 Utah | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) sparco - 2008-09-26 1:18 PM No, no, no. Emigration is much more narrow, winding, and darker, of course. And it comes into SLC by the zoo.
