I snuck out of the U early this afternoon, intending to drive the Alpine
Loop, checking on conditions for Saturday's run. For today and tomorrow,
construction in the canyon has closed the road, but it should be open for
us on Saturday. There may be some rough spots. Down below Sundance, on the
way to the junction with 189 there is some recent chip seal work, but it
should not throw up too much gravel. The chip seal work done on 189 in
that area is pretty clean, the loose rocks having already been cleaned
off by traffic. More construction at the intersection of 189 and US 40 as
you come into Heber, there may be some delay there if work continues on the
weekend. Same situation with the intersection of the road out of Park City
with the freeway. So be prepared for some road construction annoyances.
Other than that, it was a pleasant afternoon drive.
