Wyoming - Utah - This border is MINE

The posted sign with 3 skulls that threatened death if I continued should have been a tip that I had strayed a bit off my planned running route - my super-enlarged satellite view while planning differed quite a bit from reality, as I approached in the 4-wheel-drive SUV that begged to climb every dirt road cutting off to the side. But finally a believable border route was identified, and I proceeded to climb up and down a winding rocky/dirt road towards the border. After about 60 seconds of running, snow and ice started coming down. It mixed in with the previous day's rain and my feet kept miring in the mud. The road looked normal, but huge clods of dirt stuck to the bottom of my shoe & I felt as if I were wearing boots. And guess what: 50 years ago, some caring friend had put out a State Line marker just for me!
