We were at the Fairfield station and at a rider exchange just east of Faust, UT. The switch happened about a mile east of the Faust Station marker in kind of a gravel pit, so the background is kind of rugged. Of course this whole section of the trail is pretty barren with a lot of alkali, sagebrush, rocks, and little water. As the rider came in he said “I made it.”
