I have frequently driven up I-15 through the Virgin River Gorge, and it is always breathtaking. Most of the time I have been on a motorcycle and when the canyon walls begin to tower over you it is majestic. I have never been able to stop and take photos primarily because all the cool turnoffs seem to be just around the bend, and I never really felt comfortable slamming on the brakes to stop at one. This time I had a definite plan so I adjusted my speed accordingly. I read that this was the most expensive portion of I-15 to construct, but I think it was worth every cent.
