| Along I-70 |
Leaving Great Basin, we join back up with US-50. We drive for miles, occasionally seeing vehicles traveling in the opposite direction. The valleys widen as we continue east. We come across a dried lakebed turned white, salt. Driving through a few towns we finally join up with I-70. As normal practice we stay away from Interstates, but this portion of I-70 is very picturesque. We see geology at work. Multicolored sandstone, some with horizontal layers, while others lean, pointing to the sky. We see areas that resemble the Badlands of South Dakota, with hills and mesas. Be sure to stop at each of the rest areas/overlooks to take in the landscape.
