Gary and I went for a drive in the Uinta Mountains last Sunday. The Uintas boarder Utah and Wyoming. It was a fun drive and we had a picnic my Mirror Lake. The whole trip took about five hours during which we had sunshine, 90 degree temperatures which dropped quickly to 65 degrees with rain and hail, then sun again.
