In reviewing the photos I took of the route, I'd have to say there are a lot of interesting views along the way. Compare this route to, say, middle of Kansas. Not that it's bad in Kansas, but on this route the changes and variety of geology forms is quite spectacular.

Good ride with varied scenery. As mentioned, a lot of critters so ride defensively. Oh, and the monsoon level rain and lightning coming down out of the mountains to Vernal didn't exactly add to my enjoyment but that's not the fault of the route.

A great ride around Flaming Gorge from Vernal to the northern part of the gorge. Watch out for wildlife as they can surprise you. Plenty of places to stop for great pictures.
