I figure for a free site (and free of advertisements) that 58 viewers is plenty! Maybe some sponsor will come along one day. Also, I am working on getting a secondary/overflow camera so a few more can see....but that is best as I can do for now. ![]() |

The United States of America has a wide spectrum of terrain, and we have seen the flatlands of Iowa and Nebraska and then the 'rockies' approaching Salt Lake City.
Here is a bit of prehistory:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Rock_Pass http://wikimapia.org/#lat=42.3423053...=9&l=0&m=h&v=2 |

American Falls elevation 4357ft/1328m was the first town in the United States to be entirely moved from one place to another. This was done to facilitate construction of the nearby American Falls Dam.
Native Americans have inhabited this region for at least 10,000 years http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Falls_Dam http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plat |

Wamsutter Wyoming was originally settled as an outpost for the Sheep-herding business but later found it's true calling as a hydrocarbon production base. As you can see, the roads snake out from the center of town in all directions towards the small pads which contain, in most cases, natural gas exploration and production wells. These wells are primarily routed into a number of pipelines that head to California for their clean burning power production facilities, and housing among other things.
Wamsutter is also a truck stop community where many truckers get fuel and cheap food from the gas stations on the north side of the freeway which is technically not Wamsutter:- http://wikimapia.org/#lat=41.6708923...12&l=0&m=s&v=1 |

Seen twice over the last week, Steve drives down a slip road and slowly drives under a gantry with a light system and rejoins the main road – is this a toll?
