Hi Joe, Before I forget, the caption to my EPOD has changed a bit since it was posted earlier today. Basically just clarifying that the image was not some sort of eclipse (as someone emailed had the site) and the non-metric units removed. On 11 Jul 2012, at 11:15, Joe Bauman wrote:
Mostly neat shots
Thanks.
-- though I hate that repulsive "Tree of Utah."
That was my reaction years ago but like the Spiral Jetty and Sun Tunnels (all related, BTW) they have grown on me over the years.
Where's the delta? It too should be an EPOD. -- Joe
It's at the end of what looks like a drainage canal coming out of the "SALTPONDSEAST" image below leading to the lake. Cheers, patrick

I thought I'd read somewhere that the blimps were supposed to be moved to somewhere else recently but while over the West Desert Monday I saw they had not left yet: http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/BLIMP.JPG
On a totally unrelated and off topic subject, no doubt many here have heard of the Lines of Nazca. Well during Monday's adventure I "discovered" the Lines of Utah <g> : http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/LINESOFUTAH.JPG
And while I'm at it, a few more shots I took for fun: http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/TREEOFUTAH.JPG http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/SALTPONDSEAST.JPG http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/SALTPONDSWEST.JPG http://users.wirelessbeehive.com/~paw/temp/2012JUL09/DRAINAGEDELTA.JPG
Enjoy,
