Today's Trib has a list of some great (and inexpensive) things to see and do in Utah. I highly recommend the Hwy 12 drive before the state "improves" it. It is spectacular, accessible, and an easy, safe drive (even the Hogs Back while a little scary, offers wide lanes and pull-outs for viewing). If you do nothing else new this year, take this drive (in good weather).From the Trib: www.sltrib.com/entertainment/ci_7872478?source=rv
Drive State Highway 12
This necklace-shaped road along the northern boundary of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is a glittering jewel in the Utah highway system. Its 120 miles offer stunning views of Red Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Boulder Mountain and Capitol Reef National Park and also cross the Hogsback, a dramatic ridge with thousand-foot cliffs on both sides. No wonder Car and Driver magazine named it one of the top 10 scenic drives in the nation. http://www.utah.com/byways/highway_12.htm
