Guess the spot: Utah Edition

Mineral Guulch/Meadow Creek?

 

[Michael]

You have it!
The picture shows the narrows of Mineral Gulch.
We started from the old SR 9 down Meadow Creek towards Parunuweap and spent a night there. On the next morning we walked out via 7-Canyon.

You’re up, John!

Thanks for the pic because I had forgotten about that area. Your hint gave me the details to venture a guess. A place I definitely would like to get to.

This is an exit route for which canyon? Pic 1 is the route Pic 2 is the canyon LDC

Kinda looks like somewhere in Paria

Traverse from Horse Canyon towards The Gulch?

Ding, Ding, Ding! That'd be it. Had a hunch it would be quick...Take it away, Michael!

 

[Michael]

Cool, thank you. During my visit in 2017 this part of Horse Canyon was bone-dry.

The next one.

There’s a large population of wild roses.

Why is the faint trail blocked off by two rocks?

 

[Michael]

I’ve no idea why that faint trail to the little cavelike shelter looks like blocked off.

What’s also in the near? Water.

A serpent of asphalt, 123 miles long is in the neighborhood.

So, somewhere along SR12?

 

[Titans]

Wild guess, somewhere along the old Cream Cellar Rd?

Correct.

That Rd is southwestern of the little cave.

Hm... what about the Fish Creek Cove area (not exactly NE of above guess)

 

[Michael]

Fish Creek Cove is to far in the north.
The little cave is bordered by two creeks and the well known Rd.

@Nick and Nate has been here. Two handprints and moki steps are along the way.

 

[regehr]

oof, it sounds like you're talking about Boulder Creek but I was just through there last fall and do not recall seeing anything that looks like this!

 

[Michael]

You have it, John.
It’s Middle Boulder Creek loop. From Hwy 12 down to the creek, via moki steps up to the plateau and back to the Hwy.
