DESERTS & MOUNTAINS TRIP
Interstate 70 Missouri

Interstate 70 travels 2,175 miles from Interstate 15 near Cove Fort, Utah, to Interstate 695 in Baltimore, Maryland. The highway travels through the states of Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. On Day Five of the Deserts & Mountains Trip, I drove Interstate 70 from Interstate 15 to Grand Junction, Colorado. On Day Six, I drove from Grand Junction to Colby, Kansas, and on Day Seven, I drove the interstate from Colby, Kansas to Kansas City, Missouri.
