After finally getting out of The Basin, the Scenic Byway began in Vernal, UT. Surrounding the Scenic Bypass is the area where the majority of the fossils in Utah are discovered. From squid fossils to petrified sand dunes (haven't quite figured out that one) it is where the ancient ocean resided and where dinosaurs once roamed.It really just looked like a bunch of hills to me, but the thought that thousands and thousands of years of pre-man history were under the wheels of my magical, mechanical, go-fast machine was pretty cool. Once again there were very few people on the curvy, fun to drive road. Here's the drive from my perspective.
