This is another in the now series that we are putting together about the beautiful towns that we also work in.  We are blessed to have several of these really nice communities, some are larger than others but all enjoy very beautiful surroundings.  This is Summit, Utah; one of the smallest of the communities along Interstate 15 in Iron County.   This photograph was taken from a dirt frontage road east of Interstate 15.  Summit is the town that is the highest in elevation along Interstate 15 in Utah.   11/08/2009

This weekend while in Southern Utah for my son-in-laws graduation for Cedar City SUU we spent some time gathering agates.  The area up toward Fiddlers Canyon in Cedar City has some nice agates but we never were able to find our way into the canyon from the current streets.The Summit area South of Beaver had some colorful pieces and I even picked up a couple of lava rocks for my yard.  They had more cracks in them but the colors were great.We have found some of the locations we visit in books with Utah Rockhounding locations and some we have learned about from the rocks shops in Orem, Salt Lake City,  and the local area shops. 05/04/2008
