July 19, 2013 Day 42

Sunny    68 - 92    Flaming Gorge KOA    Manila, Utah

Touring around Flaming Gorge National Park today.  It is a very deep gorge ( like the Grand Canyon) but filled with water.  Green Ponderosa Pines with red bark that smell like vanilla on one side of the gorge and the other side is layered with red rock.  We took a scenic back way which is a dirt road with adults and some kids on ATV'S  to Spirit Lake on top of the mountain - gorgeous 10,298'. We also had to stop and wait for the cows to move off of the road.   After a picnic lunch at the Dam, we drove over the Dam and the road is over cliffs on pillars.
