Snapshot #168: Road Closure



November 28, 2010.  Idaho-Utah.  I-84 and Sweetzer Pass was closed today so we couldn't take the normal route from Idaho back to Utah.  Instead we took the long way around, through Pocatello.   As you can see from the picture above, we couldn't exactly see the interstate; the roads were quite treacherous.  Thankfully we made it home safely after more than 6 hours on the road.

  1. I drove back to Utah through Pocatello once...very long route. But it wasn't because of closed roads. I accidently missed the turn- off and didn't realize it until we were nearly to Pocatello!

  2. Ha ha! I actually remember when you did that. It took us just over 6 hours. Our average speed for the first half was probably 40mph.
