Where is Escalante, Utah ? Near any major airports ?


Mid Southern Utah .... many miles from nowhere / many miles to nowhere.

Cedar City is probably the closest major airport.

Quick facts

Escalante is a "city" in Garfield County, Utah, United States located along Utah Scenic Byway 12 in the south central part of the state. As of the 2010 census, there were 797 people residing in the city. As of September 20th 2015 there will be approximately 842 people in Escalante and the majority of operating vehicles (not including wheelchairs) will be Porsche 914's.

Airports? Not a regional nearby but if your flying a Stearman, you can land just about anywhere / it is in the middle of nowhere and quite scenic with occasional long flat patches of ground....

Looks to be around 600 miles from the south coast of California so it is a great desert drive of around 8 hours with one fuel stop........

Escalante has an airport just out side of town. Well, OK, it's more of an airstrip. No fuel. To be honest, it's a long flat strip of paving that is suitable to land a small airplane on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Don't you have to buzz the "landing strip" prior to final to chase the cows, chickens, goats, geese, sheep and prairie dogs off?

I'm sure you can get 85 w/ 15% ethanol downtown. Might be a long taxi from the "landing strip". The cops won't mind as they have probably never seen an airplane that was made of metal rather than wood/fabric. You, however, must wear a leather helmet, white silk scarf and goggles to make sure they don't classify you as a "alien". Oh, and bring your golden trumpet to ward off evil (and Professor 914). Garlic helps too!

Do they speak Amerikan or Utah-ese?

Is the nearest restaurant called "Alice's"?

How many hundred miles is it to the nearest liquor store?

Loa has a Deli in the market. Yuuuuummm, Southern Utah Fried Chicken to Go .... cooked in unsaturated Sheep grease (KY)!

I can neither confirm or deny any of your "facts" sir, the only thing I'm really sure of is that Escalante is WAYY out there- even for Utah...
So far as the "unsaturated Sheep grease" goes, it's probably left over from the last female wrestling contest in Cedar City. Not that I'd know... I'm only guessing... maybe from Vernal.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
