Day 11 -- Leaving Jackson Hole, WY to Vernal, UT (KVEL), Cortez, CO (KCEZ) and overnighting in Page, AZ (KPGA).
Can you believe that we only have 8 states to complete our goal of landing in 48 contiguous states?
Today's plan is to fly VFR over Star Valley, Canyon Lands, Natural Bridges, and Monument Valley.
MOJO on the ramp at KJAC.
I've never seen her so dirty. It rained while we were there and there were many large jets that blew dust on her.
We caught sight of this hot air balloon as we left Jackson Hole.

A chain of lakes just before KVEL. Some are surrounded by green and other not.
Here is Utah!!
Shane fueled us at KVEL -- Vernal Regional, UT. We learned that KVEL is known for its dinosaurs. Shane, retired from the military, told us that while he was in the military, he landed in all 48 states except Ohio

We challenged ourselves to find alphabet letters and interesting pictures made of trees or other ground structures. Here is a whale.
KCEZ -- Cortez, CO was our only touch 'n' go. We didn't get any pictures but here is the taxiway diagram.

Here is "truck drivin' Claudette. By the time we get home, she may start an Uber business.
American Aviation is a wonderful FBO. The guys were very helpful and loaned us the courtesy car for our overnight stay. Thank you all.
