    Default Freaky-Looking Utah Sunrise...

    An old ATVing buddy sent me these pictures of Today's sunrise... The California wildfires must have had something to do with it...

    Beautiful. The smoke from the fires has contributed to the overall effect.

    We rode through Utah last week on our way back to Mesa. It was very smokey. Hard to see the mountains even though they were close. Nice waitress in Heber City told us the smoke was mostly coming from California. BTW, Chicks Cafe is a "must" place to eat in Heber City.

    There also is dust in the upper atmosphere from dust storms in Africa.

    There are several wildfires burning in Ut at this moment. There is the Coal Holow Fire and the Hill Top fire .These are both just a few from where I live tho, we ate in no danger. The sunsets are really spectacular but it would be nice to see the blue sky and breathe clean air.

    Chicks in Heber is a great place to get Chicken Fried Steak,but not so great on information, most of the smoke is home grown.

    I know I can count on this forum to keep me informed!

    Haven't seen any smoke from CA wildfires since we left Ontario, but I understand it is now visible in NY state. Pretty sobering to contemplate that amount of devastation.

    US 6 is still closed as of early this morning as the Coal Hollow fire jumped the road .Dollar Ridge has flared up again and these two my join to become one. Smoke for now is going north so we are relatively smoke free down here in the center and south.

    I was at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon last weekend, very smoky, burning eyes, couldn't hardly see the canyon at all. The rangers all said most of it is from California however there were about 10 active fires in general area.
