Utah State Capitol Dome

Yesterday I had the opportunity to do an absolutely crazy thing ... I climbed through the bowels of the Utah State Capitol dome! It was amazing, and completely scary.

We climbed crazy steep stairs (probably 6 stories up or so), and after I was through it wasn't my legs that were shaky but my arms from holding on to the rails so tightly! Had I known what I was getting myself into, I may not have gone (for rational purposes knowing what a klutz I am - I should have fallen to my death).

It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I'm so glad I had that rare opportunity.

Here are some pictures of the view. Enjoy!

Oh, and my name my or my not be now written on the inside of the Capitol dome...

  1. Such pretty views, I wish I had done that when I was there! Not many Utahns get an opportunity like that, you must work somewhere cool? :) Hope all is great with the new administration.

  2. You look like a news report in the solo shot of you and the view. It's hot. P.S. I love how you describe it as the "bowels" of the capital lol.
