Our track to Provo involves a cut through of upper north east Nevada. You always know when you cross the Nevada line.
Ellie dives into the bush after one of them delectable hamster-like thingies.
Truck is ready for her natural environment.
The snows of winter are coming to this land. Today, it's still 18C in the valley.
Truck desperately tries to break the record for fastest 2010 4 runner. It's highly unlikely that this was successful.

The speedway observatory.
Afternoon coffee stop. We're thrilled to find one – after all it is Utah.
The rail arms are up – we are permitted to make our way onto Provo. Dinner at Communal awaits.
