From Cedar City, drove up to Brian Head ski area in southern Utah.There are fine views out into the western Utah desert from the mountain.
Pistes were empty! $30 midweek special for the day!
Pretty empty lifts too!! Eat your heart out Cairngorm!
Just up the road from the ski area is Cedar Breaks National Monument, an eroded canyon.I headed up over the pass east and descended to the wee town of Panguitch, Utah, where I had a blinding dinner of smoked trout, brisket and peach cobbler. An unexpected surprise to get such fantastic dinner in a local cafe. Nice wee motel too. Going to head north through the desert foothills tomorrow to look at scenery, maybe take a hike and perhaps even climb a bit of ice.
Supposedly was snowing in the Salt Lake area today. Sunny all day here. Southern Utah is very mellow, really peaceful and scenic, with just small towns and oodles of space.
