Utah has both mountain and desert terrain. The former, is naturally, slower going. Driving times are approximate, counting on full daylight, good weather, and no road closures for highway repair. The times noted allow for zipping past interesting spots, but not stopping. If you want time to explore and enjoy, add enough time to do it.
