After Thanksgiving, I packed up my things in Dallas and set out for my next adventure: working as a ski instructor at Deer Valley Resort in Park City, Utah. I snapped some pictures on my drive up and also took a time lapse video of the drive. Watching the clouds move and change in the video is captivating.
After driving through a snow storm outside of Durango, I started day two of my drive with chilly conditions: 6 degrees.

I got to Park City late in the afternoon and went straight to Deer Valley to start getting checked in. By the time I started moving into my apartment, it was below zero.
After spending some time in Dallas, I jumped in the truck and headed back up to the mountains for a couple more weeks of hiking and fishing. It had snowed on me on my drive to Dallas back in September, and it snowed on me again on this drive. Slumgullion Pass was not plowed, so the last 20 miles or so was very slow going.
I had my GoPro on for the drive and shot a time lapse video (posted below). I pulled some of those pictures and included them in the post, along with some pictures I took on my iphone.
The drive really starts to get pretty north of Amarillo, especially when you cross into New Mexico (which is pictured here).
