Did you stop at the gas station inside a cave?

The other gas station across the street has the best milkshakes.

I feel like Utah is known for 4 things. Otherworld views, 127 hours, skiing, and the other one

Maybe add fly fishing if you know the place

One of my best friends is Mormon and when I lived in Utah I dated a super hot Mormon girl. Both awesome people but if you were not a Mormon Utah was a tougher place to live.

The state is super cool i snowboarded every day and my car blew up trying to get to park city one day. Don’t know why that is important but it is what I remember.

“Have you been to THE arch?”

But seriously, I loved living there and exploring the canyons (respectfully) for pictographs and learned about butch cassidy. It was fun.

I went to yuba once to fish and camp. We stayed at painted rocks. It was like an hour before seeing the pictograph and being like "huh. I guess that's why it's painted rocks"

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.

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
