I usually focus more on campgrounds and places to visit, but this drive had the boyhood home of Butch Cassidy and some of the prettiest scenery in Utah.
First, the boyhood home of Butch Cassidy. This was just a quick pull-off and rest area, but it was interesting to see the place where Butch Cassidy lived as a teenager. His parents eventually had 12 kids, but when they lived here, they had only 6 that somehow lived in this tiny house. The first photo is of the house. I assume they chose this area because of the river behind the house.
The next few photos were taken of the inside of the house through some extremely dirty plexiglass, so the quality is not very good.
I assume the parents slept on the area opposite the kitchen, but that all of the children slept in the attic, as shown below.
This is a small barn, with space for a horse on either side of whatever this area was. Maybe the small back area was for storage???
I love long, flat, empty roads like this one! There was not much traffic, and the scenery (and weather) changed constantly.
Almost sunshine below!
Almost to Dead Horse Point State Park!
Love the patterns in the sandstone that were formed by eons of sand dunes bordering a lake.
