Pack up your car, your kids and your significant other and head to high elevation country of Cedar Mountain. That's what the locals call Utah SR-14. It travels from Cedar City, Utah to US-89 at what is called Todd's Junction. Aptly named for the convince store that sits at the junction. So talk like a local when you visit. If you pass through Hurricane, the locals can tell you are a visitor unless you say it like they do - Hur-ri-cun. We have some odd names in these parts, such as Virgin, Toquerville, Beaver and others that are the butt of a lot of jokes, but it's all in good fun. The communities are down-home, safe and crime is something there is little of in the small communities of southern Utah. We pride ourselves on just that - pride, and we work hard to earn an honest dollar. Take that attitude with you while you visit and it will give you an endearing perspective of the area.
