Summary
[edit]DescriptionVirgin River Gorge, Interstate 15 Between Mesquite, Nevada and St. George, Utah (2156387889).jpg |
Road Construction slowed us down significantly in the Virgin River Gorge on I-15 between St. George and Las Vegas. The Virgin River Gorge, located between St. George, Utah and Littlefield, Arizona, is a long canyon that has been carved out by the Virgin River in northwest Arizona. Interstate 15 runs through the canyon and crosses the Virgin River several times. The Virgin River Gorge section of Interstate 15 is one of the most expensive parts of interstate highway ever constructed. Due to the winding of the interstate, the canyon is also noted for its tricky driving conditions. The climate of the canyon is typical of the Mojave Desert with hot summers and mild winters. Flora and Fauna in the canyon are also typical of the Mojave. The canyon is popular among outdoor recreationalists such as rock climbers, hikers, and campers. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_River_Gorge" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_River_Gorge</a> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_... |
