I was in a rental vacation house at the southeastern end of Lake Michigan three years ago. It was a pretty big house, and as you walked from one end to the other, the time zone would change. Really messed with me until I figured that out.
- lizknope 5y agoAntelope Canyon is a popular tourist attraction in Arizona. During the summer Utah is on daylight savings time, Arizona does NOT observe daylight savings time but the Navajo Nation within Arizona DOES observe daylight savings time. Antelope Canyon is on Navajo Nation land and requires a tour guide from a licensed tour guide company. The canyon and tour guides DO observe daylight savings time. The canyon is only about 5 miles from the Utah border and many people are traveling from Utah. Because of all the competing cell phone towers you end up with people that show up at the wrong time. I purposely brought an old school watch for my trip.

- lizknope 5y agoI've been there. It's a bunch of casinos literally a foot over the state border. It's less than 2 hours west of Salt Lake City. Wendover is a tiny town in Utah but West Wendover in Nevada is completely different just a foot over the border. They probably want to stay on Mountain time because 99% of their visitors/customers are from Salt Lake City on mountain time and their TV stations are also probably from Salt Lake City
