Description
UPPER COLORADO RIVER SCENIC BYWAY by PRISCILLA BURGERS
A bare tree casts a shadow near a rock alcove along the Upper Colorado River Scenic Byway. This scene, beautiful any time of the year, can be seen near the ghost town of Dewey. The entire length of Utah State Route 128 is designated the Upper Colorado River Scenic Byway, which is part of the Utah Scenic Byways program. This road also forms part of the Dinosaur Diamond Prehistoric Highway, a National Scenic Byway. A petition is currently before the Federal Highway Administration to recognize Route 128 as an All-American Road. To meet this criterion the highway must be deemed by the administration to have enough scenic value to be a "destination unto itself". Residents of nearby Moab frequently refer to SR-128 as "the river road", after the Colorado River, which the highway follows. Many western films and TV commercials have been shot along this road. Having traveled this road several times, I can highly attest to its scenic value.
