This butte, along the Burr Trail in Utah was captured last Friday. It was all fun and games up to that point. I was cruising in my pickup truck, camera bag riding shotgun, on a sunny day with some good clouds. Then I lost my phone.
I remember making a photo with it then placing it on the hood of my truck while I reached for my "real camera" and tripod. Later on down the road (after the switchbacks) and almost to HWY 24, I reached for my phone and it was not to be found. I filed a lost phone report at the Capitol Reef Visitor Center and have been calling them and emailing them since, but they are not getting back to me. I had to buy a new phone in Salt Lake so I could make calls and navigate - they had to transfer my number to the new phone so now pinging it won't work.
If you're near Boulder, Utah or driving the Burr Trail soon, look for a blue phone laying near the road somewhere above the switchbacks near any photogenic rocks that are there. $100 reward. Fingers crossed.
