Hunter Power Plant

Coal-fired generating station just east of Castle Dale, Utah. This is a big coal-mining area, so presumably the fuel is of local origin. Thanks to Don Barrett for the ID of the plant.

Great shot. I tried to get close, like this, but wasn't finding a good road for it and somehow didn't feel comfortable stopping in front of people's houses out there.

Thanks! I just pulled off the road--let a truck by, IIRC--and grabbed a drive-by.

There's something about rural Utah that makes me feel like I'm being closely watched, so I tend to be probably too cautious unless there's other tourists around.

Sounds like my region of Oregon, Don.

You're right, I've felt that way around Klamath. Though, once I'm further into the eastern Oregon outback, people have been very open and friendly.

Thanks, everyone! The monsoon thunderstorms do add to the mood--
