Well we made it back home safely. Unfortunately the last hour was the worst time for the entire trip. We got stuck in a traffic jam on I-405 less than 15 miles from our house. There was some kind of accident so we sat in our jackets and helmets in 95 degree heat for at least 45 minutes as we creeped forward. By the time we got home we were both totally soaked and completely dehydrated.

Other than that, the ride home was pretty uneventful, including a stop at the Indian John Hill Rest Area to eat lunch.

When we get some time, I'll work on the wrap up, statistics, and general thought about the trip and possible future trips. I'll also work on the pictures from Bryce and Zion.
