The Spiral Jetty
May. 17th, 2008 09:03 amOne of the things I'd really like to see on my trip with my father is The Spiral Jetty. It was the first piece of environmental art I'd ever heard of, and while I don't think it's nearly as good as most of what Andy Goldsworthy does, I would love to see it.
The directions on the site make it sound not too easy. It looks like it involves about 10 miles of dirt roads, paying close attention to forks in the road so as not to inadvertently trespass on private ranchland. The directions remind me of the directions to Barking Sands in Kauai, where we nearly destroyed the rental car on the proverbial five miles of bad road.
I know this is a long shot, but have any of you actually taken the trek out to see the Jetty?
Here it is on googlemaps
