• IMPORTANT: Road conditions regularly change, and what looked easy on my video may be extremely difficult, especially during or after bad weather. You are responsible for checking trail conditions and making the go/no-go decision. Do not travel this route if there is a risk of getting stuck, injured, or damaging your equipment.

TIME OF YEAR AND WEATHER

• The best time of year to travel this route is during late spring or early to mid fall. Summers can get extremely hot. The route is impassable during winter and early spring. During the winter the mountains will be covered in snow that often lingers into the spring and may even remain until early summer.

• Snow is possible along the entire route in the winter. Heavy rain is possible along the entire route, particularly during the summer months. Almost all of the roads are impassable when wet, so do not travel after snow or rain. Turn around if you encounter mud. Watch for flash floods, do not camp in creek beds, and turn around or evacuate if you come across flooding.

EQUIPMENT

• Four wheel drive (NOT AWD) is strongly recommended for this route due to soft sand and steep climbs. Most sections require high clearance. Tires must have good traction and be able to withstand sharp rocks and rough roads.

• This route goes through some of the most remote areas of Utah where emergency services and tow trucks are not available. Travel with someone experienced and bring equipment to extract vehicles that are stuck.

• There is no cell service on most of the route. Bring multiple forms of emergency communication that work without cell service and don’t travel alone.

• Bring suitable equipment, food, and water to deal with temperature extremes.

PERMITS

• National parks require an entry fee paid at the entrance station or visitor center and a separate camping fee/permit if necessary. I recommend getting the America the Beautiful pass, since it covers all of the national parks.

• State parks require an entry fee paid at the entrance station and a separate camping fee/permit if necessary. The America the Beautiful pass does not cover state parks.

• Vehicles traveling in or through national parks must be street legal. You are responsible for checking the rules for all other areas.

• No other permits were required for camping on BLM or NFS land during our trip.
