This little gal was in my yard a couple of days ago - could it be - spring????
Taken just north of Kanab, Utah by my 16 year old daughter while we were driving.
Looking toward Bryce National Park on SR20.
SR20 is a 24 mile road that connects I-15 and Highway 89 above Panguitch, Ut by Bryce National Park. I took these out the car window as my daughter was driving. SR20 is beautiful and much nicer since the state widened it several years ago in some of the most dangerous places.
I make the drive, all 350 miles of it, to Salt Lake several times a year and the one February was in between two snow storms. Southern Utah has received an unusual amount of snow and precipitation this winter. These are three pictures of ranches, 2 above Panguitch,Ut and one on State Road SR20 - a 24 mile road over the top of a mountain between Highway 89 and I-15.
Driving on Highway 89 returning from Salt Lake City to the Lake Powell area - this herd of deer were standing by the side of the road and eventually crossed. They did not seem too bothered by the picture taking activities.
Antelope were off the side of Highway 89 between Hatch and Panguitch in Southern Utah right above Bryce Canyon on Tuesday afternoon. Snow in Hatch is pretty crazy - we saw snow up to the door handles on a Blazer in a local parking lot.
We live in the West - not unusual to drive from Page, AZ to Big Water, UT and see cattle. There are several places along Highway 89 where they can cross proving, cowboys, real live ones, still live here.
We've sure had above average snow here in the high, wind-blown deserts. These were taken from my yard looking back at the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.
Pulling out of Lake Powell Mart at Greenehaven today....
Lake Powell, Wahweap Marina, Stateline Marina and general solitude on the nice winter day.
