Cedar Breaks National Monument

This was a beautiful National Monument right near Cedar City, Utah.  You drive up to 10,000 feet and see amazing views!  It was beautiful!

 

Some Aspen trees

 

There was still a LOT of snow left.

 

I was GASPING for air.

 

A couple sweet deer.

 

This place was so spectacular.

 

Not a bad view.

 

A bristlecone pine growing on the side of the mountain.

 

On the way down the mountain, you drive through the Dixie National Forest.  It was so pretty.

Despite the wind, cold and high altitude, this little bug hitched a ride on my windshield for a long way!  I don't know how he was holding on!

 

Utah folk do NOT pamper their dogs.  These hounds were riding unsupervised on the back of a giant flatbed truck!  Cringe worthy!
