Cedar Breaks
Cedar Breaks National Monument, elevation over 10,000 ft. and Bryce Canyon National Park are at the top of the geological feature called the Grand Staircase in southern Utah. On the way there, I clearly remember driving past a beautiful lake (Navajo Lake) at over 9,000 ft. I’d never imagined such a thing. To give some perspective, coming out of Yosemite on that trip, over Tioga Pass, we reached 9,945 ft. In July, the plowed snow was twice the height of our car, the road one-way, and over twenty miles had to be driven in low gear. We sailed by Navajo Lake, at an even higher elevation, on a paved highway.
The rounded corners were a "feature" of the slide mounts of that time.
I took this at age 16 in 1956 with a Leica M3 and either a 50mm or 35mm f/2 Summicron on Kodachrome 25.
