    Heading your way tomorrow and the Udot webcam west of Escalante is showing a snow covered highway.....Should be an interesting drive.

    How long does it take the dirt roads (S. UT) to dry out after snow?

    I arrive in Escalante this Saturday right in the midst of the forecast snow storm.....Really hoping a lot does not accumulate around Escalante area. Abnormally warm temps arriving in Vancouver on the same day I fly to Las Wages....Any vacation is still a good one.

    How long does it take the dirt roads (S. UT) to dry out after snow?

    Depends on the amount of precip and if the sun comes out.......I learned the hard way a long time ago to stay off those roads that turn into 'scary slippery mud'. Udot does have a webcam at Hanksville and a few other locales out there. Capitol Reef also has a recorded weather message and they...

    We Were Almost Bones…

    Wow! Great report.......Those stone tree stumps on day 2 of your trip are super cool. I have experienced that scary search for water in the desert.....Relieved you found some water.

    Steve Allen presentation in Durango Feb 22 2024

    The 30 mins I saw was quite good.....The audio left a lot to be desired but I could understand much of what Steve was saying.....It said it was being recorded so maybe someone can contact Steve and ask if it is possible to share the recording.

    Southern Utah March suggestions?

    I have been to the Escalante area numerous times in mid-March and am hoping to return again this year......Often really cold nights but really nice during the day. Be sure to NEVER drive on most of the non-paved roads if they are wet/snow or if there is precipitation in the forecast....They can...

    zipperless sleeping bag

    Tried my friend's zipperless sleeping bag for one night and it was a pain! If you get too warm there is no way to cool down unless you get out of the bag completely.......There is a reason those types of bags will never be a seller.

    Pls recommend 4-season 1 person tent

    Big Agnes UL tents are pretty sweet......I have a 1, 2 and 4 person. Not 4 season tents but I have been in some serious wind, rain and snow storms and they have all handled it well.

    Zion Fees UP

    Many many many other do need the LNT talk and the bear canister talk. I talked to a wilderness ranger this past summer when we were in the Sierra Range and she said the number of people not following the rules has ramped up big time since permits are online. They are not happy about what they...

    Zion Fees UP

    Sadly in Inyo National Forest you print out your permit at home and you no longer interact with the Rangers at the Ranger Stations :(
