Waterbury

Holy Land USA

Dates visited: 4/2/2021 & 4/5/2021

Have you ever driven thru I-84 in Waterbury and wondered what the deal was with the cross on the hill? Well, that's Holy Land USA! You can drive up and walk around the monuments. There is a great view of Waterbury from the top of the hill as well. This place is in the All-Trails app, called "Pine Hill Loop" I think. Some of the momuments have deteriorated, and some of it's overgrown. It all could use a fresh coat of paint. We actually stopped here twice. The first time was Good Friday actually, but that was just a coincidence. It was a cloudy, cold, and overcast day. A few days later, I was driving through on the way back from other adventures, and decided to go back up when the skies were clearer, and re-take some of the photos.
