Point de vue depuis Grand View Point dans Canyonland National Park. Cette partie du parc (d´ou est pris la photo) est nommée « Island in the Sky » (trad: l’île dans le ciel) car c’est un plateau environ 370m au dessus du plateau que l’on peu voir en dessous, et 670m au dessus du niveau de la rivière qu’on ne peut même pas voir.

————

View from Grand View Point in Canyonland National Park. This part of the park (from where it’s shot) is named « Island in the sky » because this is a plateau about 1200ft (370m) above the one under, and around 2200ft (670m) above the river level (that cannot be seen).Read more

Nous avons décidé de passer les 3 et 4 juillet à Salt Lake City, connue pour avoir hébergé les JO en 2002. Cette ville est assez curieuse. Elle est plutôt jolie, en revanche ce week-end, elle semblait complètement fantôme, les rues étaient désertes. Cela est probablement du au fait que cela soit le 4 juillet. La ville fait également très neuve/récente, alors qu’elle a été fondée au milieu du 19ème siècle.

————

We decided to spend July 3rd and 4th in Salt Lake City, UT, famous for hosting the olympics in 2002. This city is quite curious. While it’s quite pretty, it seems to be a ghost town when we were visiting it, streets where totally empty. It’s probably due to the fact that it was July 4th week-end. Also, city looks brand new but it has been founded mid-19th century.Read more

TravelerEst-ce que vous savez que les mormons sont les conservateurs de la mémoire de l'humanité ? Les mormons se sont mis en tête de scanner la majeure partie des états civils du monde entier dans le but de «baptiser les morts». Une bibliothèque gigantesque a été créée à cet effet près de Salt Lake City, leur ville capitale. Elle a été creusée dans une montagne de granit, à l'abri d'une éventuelle attaque nucléaire.

July 5, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Ce geyser est au centre de Soda Springs. À nouveau il s’agit d’un geyser dont l’eau est expulsé à cause d’une poche de gaz carbonique percée et non à cause de la géothermie. Il a été créé lors d’un forage pour trouver des sources d’eau chaude. Après plusieurs mois d’éruption incontrôlée, une valve a été ajoutée afin d’éviter l’inondation de la ville. C’est le seul geyser captif.

————

This geyser is in the center of Soda Springs, ID. Again this is a co2 induced geyser due to an exploration well (looking for hot water this time). After several months of uncontrolled spewing a valve was installed to prevent town flooding. It’s the only captive geyser.Read more
