Hill AFB


We’ve had a couple of semi-long days of driving and no touring, hence the dearth of pictures. We did 290 miles yesterday and 330 today. We are at about 4400 feet here. We started at under 3000 and had two or three summits above a mile high. Tomorrow we have nearly 400 miles to Grand Junction, then we cross the Rockies on I-70 into Denver and Colorado Springs. As I recall, that pass is above 10,000 feet.
We dropped in to Hill AFB with no reservation, counting on the fact that they had plenty of overflow parking. They do, but we got the last spot. We have 30 amps and “access to the southern sky” so everything is cool. The picture shows the Wasatch (I think) mountains surrounding the east side of Hill AFB.

Hard to believe it was nearly 22 years ago we spent Christmas at Hill. Speaking of grandchildren, don't forget Kevin's birthday is Saturday.
