10th April
I decided to ride back down to Panguitch to re-join the route Arch & I had planned… The weather is forecast to improve from tomorrow, and Bryce Canyon National Park is high on my list… Before I leave Salt Lake City, I decide to have a quick explore of Cottonwood Road, a scenic route up to a ski resort to in the mountains which loom over the city to the East. First I’ve got to avoid other local attractions…
…damn – it’s only 1030
The road up to the ski resort is dry and well surfaced, and the views are great…
The ski-lifts are not working, and there are few people at the top – the ski season finished about a week ago – only a few die-hards remain. I get on the Interstate and head South, arriving in Panguitch (in a blizzard!) at about 1600. Thankfully the snow isn’t settling and the forecast is better for tomorrow…
