Over the weekend I took a little trip in the Jeep, with my partner Tim riding shotgun and Eric, in his Jeep.
We drove from Wendover to St. George. On dirt
.
I picked out a route to avoid a lot of the boring graded county dirt, sticking as much as possible, given we only had three days to do it, to the obscure, rougher, rarely travelled tracks.
Anyhow... Ended up being 536 miles of dirt in a single long weekend. I had actually driven most of this before, but not all of it, and definitely never all in one contiguous journey.
It wasn't until the third day and over 400 miles into the trip that we encountered a single other vehicle on the trail in our travels.
Saw a lot of neat country! Took a bunch of pictures, here are some of them.
Airing down the tires on the outskirts of Wendover at the start.
Near Little White Horse Pass
Rock art in a cave in the Antelope range.
Blue Mass spring in the Kern Mountains.
Tungstonia ghost town.
Warm springs near Gandy - I peeled down and jumped in, will spare you the pictures of that .
Camp in the Snake range, at Mormon Jack Pass.
Crossing the Snake range, Mount Moriah snow capped in the distance.
Horse Canyon in the Snake Range.
Snake Creek Indian burial cave near Garrison.
Some rock art I found taking another lunch break on the south end of the Confusion range.
Western Diamondback Eric found near the rock art.
Crystal Peak on the north end of the Wah Wah's.
