Take the
detour.
We take the days worth driving to and post the good bits — and every time, the same reply: wait, where was that? This is the answer. Each town near Salt Lake written up as one specific day, stops in order, timed so you’re in the right place when the sunsets. Not a list. A plan.

The detours

Swiss chalets and a cuckoo clock, the swim spot locals don’t post, a dairy farm, and a hill timed to the sunset.

- Donut FallsUtah
45 minutes up Big Cottonwood
A waterfall you can climb inside, an overlook at 9,700 feet, lunch at the top of a funicular nobody knows is free, and ski jumpers landing in a pool.

Questions
What is this, exactly?
A handful of nearby towns, each written up as one specific day — stops in order, timed so you’re in the right place when the light is good, with the map pin and the price for every one. You pick a town, you show up, you stop planning.
Is it actually free?
Yes. Every itinerary unlocks for free. Some stops cost money once you’re standing there — lunch, a ticket, gas — and we put the price on every one so nothing catches you off guard.
Where do these come from?
They’re the days we actually take. We drive them, eat at every stop, and post the good bits — and then enough people ask “wait, where was that?” that it needed somewhere to live. This is that place.
Why do I have to give my info?
Because we’re building more of these, and the people on the list hear about every new one first. Twenty seconds, no spam — and one unlock opens every town on the site, not just the one you came for.
How far are these from Salt Lake?
From under an hour to about two. Every town card says how far before you click it, because that’s the fact that decides whether you’re in.
Can I ask for a town?
Please do. Reply to the email you get after unlocking, or comment on any of the reels. The next few towns are getting picked by whoever asks loudest.
