I've driven past there a few times, but I guess I never paid attention to the corral. Alright, here's the next one:

I just drove that last weekend (though I'll let someone else answer).
Oh... I've seen this, but not sure where. I think it was Hwy 6 south of Price.

Nope, not Highway 6.Quote:

And in different locations (along the same highway). The first one I remember seeing used to be right where Straight Wash crosses Highway _______ between _____ ______ and _________. I think it was May 1993.Quote:

Okay, name where I was standing when I took this picture.
The first picture was looking West. Here is a shot looking East.

Close, it's actually inspiration point, but I'll give it to you anyway. Good job! :2thumbs:
Here ya go.
I remember seeing this from you trip report to White Wash/Dead Cow Wash a few months ago, but I have no idea where this run down shack for little people is? I know I've never run on to it in any of the trips we've made down there...
I wondered if anyone would remember it from that TR. It is North East of the Sand Dunes at White Wash.It is in the ugliest place on EARTH. Whoever lived there in the day had a miserable existence.
Your up.
The photos a little washed out, sorry. The road's washed out too.
Where is this?
White Rim Trail, Canyonlands
I won't guess because I'm running out of photos to post, but that sure is a fun road! I had to stack a few rocks to get up it the last time I was there.
Not White Rim Trail---West of there.Quote:

Will go back though, I'm itchin' to see the rest.:2thumbs:Quote:

Correct! :2thumbs:Quote:

Fun fact, I broke my back on the cliff at this arrow in 2005.

The Story:
I started working at Snowbird in 2002 and rode a lot but kept my feet mostly on the ground (or Pow rather) despite most of my friends dropping cliffs all over the mountain. On 2.21.2005 there was a ton of new snow, I was having a great pow day and also expanding my cliff jumping ability because the landings were so soft. All of the cliffs I did I had seen from other angles or had seen others jump them. Around mid day I met up with a good friend who jumped big cliffs all the time. He took me down to the cliff in the arrow and told me where to jump. I wasn't feeling it at all because I had never seen the bottom. A patroller was watching me just below. My friend told me to go straight and I decided to go a little left since it looked like less of a distance. The cliff was about 45 feet we determined. My rookie move to the left landed me directly in another guys bomb hole so the snow was all blown out already and I also turned in the air so I landed pretty much parallel to the mountain (not good). My face hit my knee on impact. It hurt. I tumbled and righted my self and knew I was messed up. Adrenaline allowed me to snowboard slowly down to the bottom of the Mineral lift, up to Hidden Peak, down tram in pain and at the base I was hurting bad. Went to instacare and they told me it was a lower back sprain. 2 days later, the radiologist called and said I had a broken back. Compressed 3 vertebrae (chipped off the edges of L1, L2, L3). In a back brace for 5 weeks and then back on the hill. Very happy I'm not paralyzed.
My face after knee goggle. Will have the triangle scar for life.

That same friend hitting the backbreaker cliff a year later.

Keeping with the mountain theme and in honor of the crazy avalanche year this year. Where is this taken? (sorry to all of you desert dwellers)

Is that up by Red Pine Lake?
Not Red Pine. In the Wasatch but off a different ridge line.
I have a feeling more than a few of you have been in the lower drainage (in summer perhaps) and even more have seen the prominent peak that the second photo is taken from.

How about Mineral Fork up Big Cottonwood?
Mill D (Cardiff)?
Mineral Fork was one over, Mill D is the one. Second photo above was taken from the top of Superior.
Scott, you're up.
