So as part of my Southwest trip in June i'll be heading up from the Monument Valley area to Hanksville via Cedar Mesa, routes 261 & 95. I'd really like to break up this drive with a bit of a hike but this is one of the areas i'm least familiar with.
Ideally i'm looking for something fairly easy - maybe 5-6 miles in length, not too technical, although if there's something you think I really shouldn't miss along that route then i'm also open to an overnighter. Here's a possible sticking point though - i'll be in a 4x4 SUV but it will be a rental, so intense high clearance roads are probably not an option I'm willing to risk my rental agreement down easier dirt roads but nothing too crazy...
Any advice for this area greatly appreciated!
