We all left Hopi Land on Saturday morning, July 13th, at about 7:45 a.m. PDT--17 members of the team flying out of Flagstaff to Phoenix to BWI; my homeward trip via CO/WY/NE to visit family. Well, Merle told me about this short-cut dirt road (see below). It was about 30 miles long; sometimes I had to slow down to a creep; and sometimes I was able to drive along the far right side to avoid some of the wash-boardiness but had to speed up to ensure that I would not get stuck in the deep sand. In spite of the challenges of the Low Mountain (dirt) Road, just east of Polacca, I'm certain it saved me at least an hour and maybe up to 75 miles. Once I exited the Hopi Res and entered the Navajo Res, it did convert into a nice asphalted road.
