The original U.S. Route 6 alignment is to the left of the building. We enjoyed our discovery of Spanish Fork and the hospitality provided by the Chamber of Commerce and particularly that of Vern and Marie. Next we stopped at the towns of Salem, Payson, Santaquin and Goshen where we drove around the towns, gained a little knowledge from some of the locals and proceeded on along the old U.S. 6 alignment to the town of Eureka. Eureka is the remnant of an old mining town. There were no less than 12 mines operating within 10 miles of Eureka in its heyday.
Today there is discussion that is causing considerable excitement.
Mr. McNulty was very knowledgeable about the area and the mining that gave it's place in time. Eureka, Utah Note the metal frame half way up the mountain in the background. Our next leg of the trip was a fantastic drive across a the high plains, over a mountain and eventually into Delta. We stopped at a roadside cafe on U.S. Route 6 in Lynndyl. The scenery along this run into Delta was just magnificent and although we didn't pass anyone, nor were we passed by anyone heading westward, it was a solitude that was truly enjoyable to us both.
