Finally went up Mona Pole on Saturday.
First, the easest way to get there....I-15 heading south. Take exit 245, turn left or head west.
turn south or right at the T. Go 7 miles on the frontage road or one mile past the Young Living Farm. There will be a dirt road on your left. Head east on the road to the mona gravel pit. You will pass under I-15. It looks like you are heading into the gravel pit, right before you get there, there is a dirt road straight ahead. You will see the sign for Mona Pole.
About a mile up there is a sign in station. I suggest filling out the permit. 200 fine if not.
The road up it steep and rocky. With Ivan JR. on saturday blowing at our backs, I started to overheat. Nothing that a good 4x4 couldn't get up.
You wind your way up to 9700 feet. Then you drop and wind a bit through the pines and you come to an intersection. If you go left, you end up at an old mine and a great view. Right will take you to Nebo loop road.
I enjoyed the ride, but was surprised to see no animals.
