Michael Ballard Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 After reviewing some photos I had taken on previous trips, I found enough to extend my US 6 tour from its old terminus in Tonopah, Nevada all the way to the Utah State Line east of Ely, Nevada. The tour is finally "done". I don't think I can go much further east for some time, as I lack quite a bit of photos and information about the road's journey through Utah. Maybe one day. I've at least taken the roadway to I-15 and done other parts in Utah and Colorado. http://socalregion.com/highways/us_6/ Enjoy! PS - The tour is now about 620 miles long, so if you wish to follow the whole thing, it might take a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keep the Show on the Road! Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Mike, It is hard to express how much I like your US 6 site and work! Outstanding and Excellent come to mind!! You used several excellent maps which I really appreciated . If I can help provide additional maps, I bet I have several period maps (1920’s) that cover the route in the west, and nationally. And I am happy to share them with an excellent project. Let me know. I think of US 6 as being much of the old Midland Trail. Am I correct? When you get into Utah you will certainly enjoy it. When I was in Utah in November I took the section of US 6 / Midland Trail between Spanish Fork and Green River. I photographed the old Green River Midland Hotel, the Pastime Bar (Ya gotta love that Beer sign!), and the old bank building on US 6 / Midland Trail. This is what I would call “old town” Green River. I really enjoy these authentic old sites. Again, Nice Job! Dave Keep the Show on the Road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
