Visit Park City and take a balloon ride, for an hour or more, there are several operators. You get a very different prospective on things from here....
From our balloon you could see the "ground pounders" who were victims of gravity. Take a look at another balloon that let out just a little too much air, he almost landed in someones living room.
Take a ride on the Reading (oops, thats in Monopoly), here it is the Union (hmmm, thats in Monopoly also, do we have a trend here.
But really this coal buring train runs on a track for several kilometers and you can get all the fun and enjoyment of visiting the past for a short time (including inhaling lots of burnt coal if the wind is right ).

thanks, Martin, for your insights and love of life!
I'll have to pencil in Park City for my next Utah adventure!!
You have terrific pictures of my MOST favorite place in Utah - Park City - never saw it from a hot air balloon like you did - glad you posted these! I will have to try the balloon ride soon, but maybe also try to get out of the work detail at the end!
ops, not sure if my vertigo would let me do this lol, but i f i do it instead of a coffe, i would need a wine glass ;-)
A balloon ride is still on my list of 'must do's'. What a fabulous place to do it in and so lucky with the weather. What a wonderful experience and great photos.
Wonderful photos of your balloon ride Martin! I went on a balloon flight once and I found it amazing! When the burners are off it is so amazingly silent floating through the air. I loved it!
