This will be the second time I will lead folks through this very magical and isolated part of Utah.  We will ride 90 miles of the old railroad grade heading east stoppinfg along the way at various watering spots of which all that remains are cemeteries.  this is a beautifully secenic ride, finishing off with the Golden spike reenactment.
