The funny thing about that illegal road is that it is graded. So someone is taking care of it. I was told in the BLM office that those roads are allowed for cattle grazing permit holders only and that they are indeed allowed to maintain their own existing roads. So it looked like a pretty nice road to be considered not open to hikers.
Here's a link to the VR 360 multirama that I shot a couple of weeks ago at the Wahweap Hoodoos. When the image changes from B&W to color it's ready and you can navigate all around with the mouse. (IT might take some time to load.)

Okay, now I have a fire lit under me to find these things. Can anyone tell me when (as in what month) they get early morning light?

I think that common wisdom is April through September. But if you get there for sunrise or shortly thereafter, you might stretch it a month on either end. I have been as late as Oct. 13 and got sunlight on most of that big hoodoo but many were in shade.
BTW, the walk from the parking area just north of Big Water to the hoodoos usually takes me 2 hours. The creek is not deep but you will have to cross it several times and at the very least will get your shoes wet. If it's been raining you will have to go through some mucky, muddy, slippery spots.
Some of the other nearby hoodoos probably get the morning sun year-round.
Cool, thanks! I was just looking at a hiking website and they have the hike at 4 miles, so 2 hours sounds about right. I've heard they get light a little after sunrise because they're in a wash, correct?
Well, don't wait too late. Are you familiar with a little app called "The Photographer's Ephemeris"? It will give you much information about sun and moon rise and set, angle, etc. anywhere and at any date. And it's free! On your computer or your tablet.Yes, that is very cool! Okay, so there's no point hiking in the dark to be there at dawn, then. I love sites where you can sleep in
