I traveled with teammate Tad Elliott from Park City to Canmore, Alberta, Canada today. Because of our limited budget, we didn’t have the best itinerary. We flew from Salt Lake City to Phoenix, Arizona. We got nice views of the Grand Canyon:

And Lake Powell:

On the way from Phoenix to Calgary we flew directly over Salt Lake City! I looked out the window and saw Park City!

The rest of the team was on a direct flight. They left after us and arrived before us.
Once we got to Calgary, we had an hour and fifteen minute drive to Canmore. It is a beautiful drive from the great plains into the Canadian Rockies.
