Western Frontier: Part 2

After we landed in Salt Lake City, we drove to Wyoming to meet up with the family. We headed north to a little tiny town called Pinedale. It was quaint. The ice cream stand was very popular. Then we took a drive so the guys could fish. The Boy and I caught some stunning views on a trail we took up a little mountain!
Wow!

Freezing. Cold.
 Next stop, Flaming Gorge which crosses the Utah and Wyoming borders. It's a huge recreation location in the middle of pretty much nowhere. The geology is incredible. As you drive, the rock types change drastically because of the way the land was moved, so it's as if you are driving into the earth. Click here to learn more - I'm not describing it well, and honestly, it doesn't look like this describes it perfectly either, but it's cool. Really cool.

Oh, yeah, The Boy and I are recent fishing converts. That's for another post.
