Entering the Great Basin | Rock Springs to Salt Lake City

In October 2023, we packed up the car and drove west to Great Basin National Park to see an annular solar eclipse. We weren’t filming for YouTube. We weren’t building a series. We were just going. The trip lasted two weeks — long stretches of interstate, quiet mornings, and wide-open country. Not every day had a headline moment. Some days were simply about entering a new landscape and letting it unfold. In this episode, we leave Rock Springs, Wyoming and continue west toward Salt Lake City — crossing the Red Desert, stopping at Echo Canyon to watch a freight train wind through layered red rock, and driving the stretch of highway sometimes called the “Highway to Heaven.” By afternoon, we arrive in Utah and head straight to Great Salt Lake State Park. Salt crunches under our feet. The air smells faintly mineral. Nefertiti dances along the shoreline while I wander with the camera, drawn to the textures and haze of this otherworldly place. Three hours of driving becomes something much larger. This is our first real step into the Great Basin — and it already feels vast. Thanks for being here. — 📍 Locations in this episode: Rock Springs, Wyoming Red Desert Echo Canyon Parleys Canyon Wasatch Mountains Salt Lake City, Utah Great Salt Lake State Park Blick Art Materials (Salt Lake City) Spitz Mediterranean Street Food 🎥 Filmed October 2023 ☀️ Annular Solar Eclipse Road Trip Series #GreatBasin #UtahRoadTrip #SaltLakeCity #GreatSaltLake #EchoCanyon #AmericanWest #RoadTripUSA #Wyoming #Utah #AnnularSolarEclipse #SolarEclipse2023 #CinematicTravel #SmallPlanetBigWorld #HighwayToHeaven #GreatBasinJourney Filmed by: Andy Spencer and Nefertiti Abdulmalik ‪@zuctronic‬ ‪@SolARLightBeam‬ Edited by: Andy Spencer ‪@zuctronic‬ Thumbnail by: Nefertiti Abdulmalik ‪@SolARLightBeam‬ Music credit: Vintage Vibe-o-rama ‪@vintagevibeorama‬ "Eternal Signals" "Under the Surf" 00:00 Entering the Great Basin 00:21 Rock Springs to Salt Lake City 01:56 Highway to Heaven (Western Wyoming) 02:41 Echo Canyon Overlook 05:16 Parleys Canyon & Wasatch Mountains 06:53 First Day in Salt Lake City 07:18 Great Salt Lake State Park (Utah) 08:35 Dancing on the Salt Flats 10:18 Utah Sunset Drive
