Day 1 of our Pacific Northwest Road Trip.
Leaving Breckenridge around noon, we headed towards Salt Lake City, UT… which was a fairly uneventful drive until about 2 hours from our hotel when we hit a traffic hairball in the middle of Utah.

There was a fairly significant wreck on highway 6 that closed both lanes of traffic and required two helicopters and several emergency vehicles. Everyone was out of their cars and walking around for about an hour and a half before they finally opened the road.

Hotwire.com hooked us up with a nice suite for only $80. The service helped out a lot on our trip as our itinerary was very flexible and often didn’t book a hotel until an hour or so until we got there.

Tomorrow, it’s off to Oregon.
