Vernal is the home of the Utah Museum of
Natural History. Here is a full size rendering
of a wooly mammoth.
This pterodactyl is for my daughter, Donna!
A ferocious T-Rex.
After the heavy rains last night and this morning,
the afternoon brought sunshine so we headed
north to Flaming Gorge Dam. Here you see
one of the many geological features along Rt. 191.
A monolith along the way.
Looking back down into the valley as we climbed
the mountains.
You know I could not resist another
shot of the changing aspen.
Our first glimpse of Flaming Gorge.
Our tour guide took this picture of us
on the top of the dam. We had to go
through a security check before we
were allowed to go with our guide.
You can see from all the red rock
why this is called Flaming Gorge.
Inside of the dam.
It is ten feet from being completely filled.
From all the heavy rains we had, this is
what the Ashley Creek looked like
this afternoon.
Taking a look at the other side of the bridge,
this is what the Ashley Creek looked like.
