Back Roads

We try not to drive the interstates. We want to see the USA so we stay on the 2-lane roads as much as possible. We took I-80 out of Salt Lake City to Wendover then on to Wells, Nevada because there was not a good two-lane alternative. From Wells we took US-93 to Jackpot then on to Twin Falls. From Twin Falls we took US-30 to High Adventure RV Park where we are now.

We see lots of interesting things driving through the small towns. We saw so many things today along US-30 we are going to take the toad back to investigate them further. Driving along the interstate we probably wouldn't have noticed many of the things.

We drove right past our turn off at Justice Grade on US-30 today because we were looking at the great scenery and the turn-off was hidden. We had to drive another couple of miles before we found a place where we could turn the RV+toad around. The Justice Grade was a short, narrow road with a couple of do-able switchbacks that took us out of the Snake River valley to the plateau above the river to our next stop at High Adventure RV Tours campground.
