Robert writes, "The 31 mile drive to Harper's Corner is a stunning trip! I would rate it as one of my favorites from our many travels. From desert vistas to Mountains and canyons, including many pull off's to take in the views. We opted to do only one hike with a trailhead that starts where the road ends-Harper's Corner. I misspoke in an earlier post; Harper's Corner resides in Colorado (you can't always believe GPS). One stretch of the road you are in Utah for a few miles.

This scene is at the start of the drive. The road takes you around and over the Mesa. The road itself is blacktop all the way. I stopped the car to get out and take a pic of this nearby, old winding dirt road."
