Hey all,

I'll be bombing down I80 headed toward Denver from Cleveland, OH in a couple weeks. The plan is to pick up my brother in Denver on the way to Utah. We're going to take Mosquito and Pearl Pass before jumping back on pavement to Gateway, CO.

I see trails on satellite that spit me out at Onion Creek from John Brown Road... has anyone done this recently? I'm in a lifted WK2 Grand Cherokee with AT tires, a repair kit, and on board air. Will I have an issue or does this sound like a good plan? I've done a reasonable amount of wheeling out west... enough to know my comfort zone and how to stay out of trouble.

After we get to Moab, everything's up in the air. We're thinking of heading down to Monument Valley and the 4 corners area before kicking it back to within a 5 hour drive of Denver on the 26th.

We'll probably do a trail in the Moab area... something leaning toward a slight pucker. Any suggestions?
