DESERTS & MOUNTAINS
TRIP
Interstate 15 Utah
Interstate 15 runs along the west
side of the Rocky Mountains. The interstate spans from San Diego,
California, to the Canada border near Sweetgrass, Montana. On Day
Three of the Deserts & Mountains Trip, I drove Interstate 15
from Interstate 40 in Barstow to CA 18 West in Victorville. On
Day Four, I drove Interstate 15 from CA 58 in Barstow to Cedar
City, Utah, and on Day Five, I drove the interstate from Cedar
City to Interstate 70.
