Freeways, highways, and other roads as we move the coach from one site to another. Plus cat pics.
Travel from Torrey to Green River, UT
We drove our coach 107 miles, about 2.5 hours, from Torrey, Utah to Green River, Utah.
Here’s the map, heading northeast:

A somewhat desolate area beyond the park:

Lots of interesting rocks, though:

Exit:

A somewhat low bridge; our coach is 12’ 7” high, so enough clearance:


Welcome to Green River:

An interesting building façade:

Green River would be more accurately called brown river:

Route maps
Here’s an animated GIF showing our RV travel routes: the Yellowstone rental trailer trip last year, adding travel in our coach last year, travel so far this year, and finally the planned route for much of the remainder of the year.

Travel from Hatch to Torrey, UT
We drove our coach 124 miles, about 3 hours, from Hatch, Utah to Torrey, Utah.
Here’s the map, heading northeast:

Heading down the highway:

Paladin spent much of the time in his safe space next to my chair, as usual:


Some nice old buildings in Panguitch (I’m going to try to take more pictures of interesting towns we pass through):

Nice houses:

I worked on my laptop while Jenn drove:

Lots of straight portions of the highway:

Which are a convenient and fairly safe time for me to get up and grab a snack from the fridge:

Travel from Caliente, NV to Hatch, UT
We drove our coach 177 miles, 4.5 hours, from Caliente, Nevada to Hatch, Utah. Yay, another state!
Here’s the map, heading east:

An interesting point about this route is it isn’t the most direct route — that would be highway 14. However, as the map indicates, there is a portion with a too low clearance for our coach, plus that route is very twisty and across a mountaintop. We did drive that route in our truck later, and were very glad we didn’t try to take our coach that way. This is an important part of route planning; making sure it is feasible for our RV. The RV Life Trip Wizard really helps with this.
Anyway, on with the travel pics. Caliente is a fairly cute small town; here’s Company Row:

Getting on to I-15:

Where the speed limit was 80 MPH, not that we go that fast in our coach:

Paladin sleeping in his safe spot next to my chair:

We didn’t really need fuel, but were concerned that truck stops would be less common out in the wilds of Utah, so stopped at T/A to top up:


We topped up the DEF, too:

A first for us, we parked with the trucks:

And headed in to Subway for lunch:

A couple more Paladin pics:


I noticed a bunch of these interesting ramps along the freeway; presumably to let animals escape the road:
