Robert writes, "Oh, you watch several videos of a destination, get all excited, then reality sets in. The 20-mile stretch of 'what was once a highway' that was ordered to be paved and was paid for by Howard Hughes (the road has been left to die ever since) and you were warned by all the videos this road was atrocious. That, plus the fact that to get to one of the places you wanted to visit, Little Finland, would be several more miles off-roading (a dirt road off of this one) NOPE! While we rented a proper vehicle and could get there; didn't want to risk any damages to the Bronco; besides, Utah was calling." Comments | Permalink
