From the Wedge we headed back down Buckhorn Draw with a plan to go down to Black Dragon and out I-70, which would cover part of the getaway route Butch Cassidy and Elza Lay used for the Castlegate holdup; possibly the most famous of all the Wild Bunch’s heists. We took our time down the draw...

This is where we had a somewhat exciting time as we came to the river crossing for the San Rafael River. It was pretty dark and we had a hard time seeing how deep the water was. I did not want to wade through the water as we probably should have done, so I drove down to the edge and shined my...

After wandering around the mine area we ate a quick lunch and wandered back to I-70. Looking for a way to get to Dutchman’s Arch we ended up over shooting it (no turnoffs) and backtracking along the road and through another culvert. We played around for a bit hiking around Dutchman’s Arch, took...

Our intentions were to get over to the Copper Globe mine. Heading south after taking a few wrong turns, we got ourselves back on track. It was kind of funny, because for lots of the way we were following what appeared to be passenger car tracks that were carefully placed as to not harm the...

We woke up to a slightly overcast day which was welcomed as the desert is usually extremely hot in July. Thomas cooked us up some great breakfast burritos, and we each took turns using the solar shower. It felt great to be in the middle of nowhere and clean, even though for a while we had to...

After fueling up in Hanksville we drove through a sandstorm on our way into the Swell via the Goblin Valley access road. Once we got up closer to the sandstone the wind died down and we headed towards the Temple Wash Trail. I wasn’t paying as close attention to the GPS as I should have, which...

Driving down the road from Dirty Devil River is slightly uneventful until Sunset Pass, with the exception of an old refrigerator and an old Hudson car abandoned in the desert, that had been converted to a travel trailer by an adventure seeker from decades ago. As we climbed up and over Sunset...

Our journey started before we left as Mariko and I have recently been studying and reading the stories and tales of Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch. This reading urged us to get out and explore the areas we had read about to get a feel for it all. We wanted to cover as much ground as possible...

I guess that depends if you are growing tomatoes ;)

I agree on not being memorial day weekend but other than that I would love to come check it out :)

Do you have a description for Black Rock Canyon? I have heard about it but not much else...

I think that the 3.0 with the auto is fairly anemic. But I have felt some with a 5 speed that are ok... I know for a couple of the years they had a problem with headgasket material but I am not totally sure how wide spread that was. That is probably the one toyota engine I don't think I would...

I think I was over there and saw it running up and down the road after the super charger was put in. Sweet Jeep :)

You getting a cruiser? :greg::greg:

Just send me a PM if you need me to do anything... :cool:

I can go pick up what ever you need and send it down with SAMI...

It was the only flowering cactus we saw all weekend... but it is all real :D

Great pics Jason! Here are a few of mine :D

Well if there are plenty of people going then I am going to back off sorry but it would have been an a really early drive down from Logan to get there in time. I'll try and catch it on the next go around. If you think you are going to run into trouble and not have enough people feel free to call...

I'll plan on going. I guess I could bring the taco down after all... :)
