Colorado and Utah Days 3 and 4: It’s a Long Way to Denver

20 August 2022 • 824 km / 512 mi (map)

So, it turns out it’s a long way from Salt Lake City to Denver. We drove this over two days with a brief stop in Wyoming. Mostly it gave us a chance to catch up and talk and do some shopping. There were lots of wide-open spaces and we didn’t take much time to stop for photos.

A restored vintage Texaco gas station with a corrugated metal building labeled “HAYS,” a large round Texaco star sign, and old red gas pumps under a clear blue sky. A weathered red 1950s Texaco service truck sits parked to the left beside an old trailer and rusty equipment on a dirt lot.
Rawlins, Wyoming
A wide expanse of dry grassland dotted with sagebrush and yellow wildflowers, bounded by an old wooden picket fence that runs across low rolling hills scattered with pine trees and rocky outcrops, beneath a vast sky filled with wispy cirrus and swelling cumulus clouds.

Loved this mural on a school near where we’re staying in Denver:
