Ah, so not so far from Loch Ness then if I with my body shape would enter the water.

Head gasket

Looks like it's been mined

Incredible picture - looks like another planet

Leyndel after burning down the Erdtree

It was 12 years ago, I was totally clueless (I'm European, first time in the usa), driving by myself from fruli to moab. After I left that gas station I had no idea how deserted the road would be, I couldn't even find one radio signal. Was scary! Best month tho, driving randomly around Utah, Colorado, new Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and California. Amazing places. Did a lot of hiking and mountain biking too

*thythtem

I live just miles from this magic maze of moss, moving water, and mountainous rock formations all resplendent in their pristine, preserved place. If you have the chance to go here it is food fo your soul. I never get tired of it, even after years and thousands of trips into this bossom of the earth.

That is really something perhaps, nice photo :).

Like movie style “blow up”? Or just broke and smoked?

I wish to become one with these lush organisms.

The colors on the Hall of Mosses were so unreal and hard to capture with my iPhone. Seriously one of the most magical feeling places I’ve ever been.

I think it's a no swimming sign. It drops off at the shore and there is no lifeguard on duty

Alluvial flood plains have always fascinated me

That little gas station saved my rear. Was driving across in January a year ago and my ol truck ran out of coolant over one of the high mountains, and managed to limp along to there.

The extreme emptiness of the region and the raw barren landscape really makes you feel things deep down. I always get butterflies when I'm down there. It feels like a part of the planet left over from pre dinosaur times that just got forgotten by nature. Very difficult to do it justice with words trying to describe it to people who haven't experienced it. It's just southern UT.

Looks like long dong silver

The number of films shot in UT would probably surprise most people. Everything from Dumb and Dumber right up to John Carter. Pirates of the Caribbean to Looking Glass.

I need that shirt. No one knows where Hanksville is. It's on the furthest corner of a lonely road in the middle of freaking nowhere.

We've got a Molly's Nipple as well. Though as near as I can tell every state has one of those.

Bro misspelled the shattered plains

Hanksville is literally like a chunk of Mars fell to Earth and landed in UT. That whole area south of I 70 and east of I 15 is bonkers beautiful. And there are so many varieties to it as well.
