The spiral jetty is totally worth the long drive, there is so much to photograph out there. I can't say anymore that what yardkat has said about Jay & Monte's hospitality, I never though someone I've never met to be so generous.
I'm going to try and scan the tin type tonight, and hopefully get some time to develop a couple of rolls. Once I get some prints made, I'll scan some and upload them. (Warning it may be some time.)
Yeah, it might be awhile for me as well, unfortunately. I don't have a film scanner, and right now not a lot of time to go print, but I will try to get down to the darkroom before I leave town next week.
