Ahhh...... the Burr Trail.
A fantastically beautiful drive. Coming across the ridge and down the Water Pocket fold switchbacks is rivaled only by the Mokee Dugway.
That’s an interesting road, one I used lots of times when we were cleaning up the Uranium tailings.
During the 10 months I worked the project I lived in Mexican hat and hauled dirty tailings out of Fry Cyn to a place we agreed not to disclose for processing the rest was capped and stabilized, areas down there will still set off Geigers
we only pulled 42’ trailers back then(thank goodness) wouldn’t want to pull one of today’s 53’s
Two years ago was my first down the Mokee in the dark. During the day, the view from the top is a vast open emptiness.
I was shocked to see so many electric lights out in the distance at night.
It sure dispeled my notions of what was out there, when my previous data was only what I could see in the day.
