We Made It To Wyoming!

But wait! Wasn’t our destination Tremonton, Utah? It certainly was, and we got there but we just couldn't resist the temptation. We arrived in Tremonton on Monday after a lengthy drive (including geocaching) from Reno. We spent a good part of our visit chatting with family. We did take a break occasionally to run to the store and pick up a few geocaches along the way. We justify the geocaching by claiming it is our exercise for the day.





Now it was the 4th of July and we thought we would see some of our country Larry and I had never seen before. We left everyone else behind and headed out across Northern Utah. We had a destination in mind, but we didn’t know if we would get there or not. We did! We made it all the way to Wyoming and found a total of three caches. One at the border but on the Utah side and two in Wyoming within 12 miles of the border.

To get there we followed The Behive State Hiway 30 from Tremonton, through Logan, through the Cache National Forest (interesting but we didn’t find a cache here), along Bear Lake, passed the town of Pickelville, passed the Redevous State Recreation area, through the Old Laketown Canyon, to the border and a little beyond! It was an interesting trip. We were obviously not in a pretty part of Wyoming (by our definition) when we got there but we saw signs directing us to follow this road to Jackson, WY and on to Yellowstone. We were tempted but given the distance and the fact that we were not prepared to extend our trip, we were able to ignore the temptation.

We had accomplished our goal for the day so we headed back to Tremonton. We debated taking the longer road leading back to Salt Lake, UT to make a bigger circle, but we figured we had abandoned the family long enough. It was time to get back in case we wanted to see the 4th of July parade in nearby Riverside.
