Cross-Country Route 40 Bike Trip - Day 8: Wendover to Grantsville, Utah
| Distance: |
97.8 miles |
| Description: |
The day's riding starts out very easy - 55 miles across the perfectly flat salt flats southwest of the Great Salt Lake. Still, it is an extremely harsh environment with no shade or services along the span. At the eastern end of the salt flats, you'll make some 500 foot ascents before returning to the earlier elevations of the salt flats. There are two very brief unavoidable runs on I-80. You'll need to carry plenty of water and food with you as you probably won't have any services on this day. |
