SLC to Vernal
Today was a day to for a ride. Overnight we had a snow storm. Today we have high winds, intermittent rain, snow, hail and sunshine.
This is typically a 400 mile round trip ride. Early in the season this ride is great with an overnight stay in a Vernal hotel. The ride will take you up the I-15 corridor, through Lehi, Orem, Provo, Utah Canyon, Heber, Current Creek, Fruitland and more. The bulk of the ride will happen on Highway 40.
The nice thing about this ride is you can begin by going from Salt Lake City up and over the Park City route or from Salt Lake City, head through the point of the mountain, and head up and over through Provo Canyon. This route will take you from the middle of Salt Lake, through our ski mountains, past lakes, rivers and Reservoirs. You will experience high mountain snows all the way to the more Star Wars desert scene of the landscape in Vernal. The various changes in elevation as well as terrain makes this for a visually dynamic ride.
