Come join us for a drive and campout. We will meet at the Chevron in Spanish Fork at the mouth of the canyon. Drive up to the trailhead of one of the best drives in Utah. About halfway, depending on speed and distance covered, we will stop and set up camp and enjoy the company of fellow overlanders.

If you are not able to make stay over night, there are multiple routes that drop down into nearby town to get you home.

The start time is flexible, but it would be nice to set up camp before dusk.
End time is unknown as I have never been up this route, or how long it will take to pack up camp and go in the morning.

Bring your own food and supplies as if you're alone. We will have each other so don't go buying something just for this ride.
I am recommending 4x4 and offroad tires based on the fact that it may be needed dependent on the weather prior to driving the trail. Unless it rains that week, I don't see needing the 4x4.

Call or text (best) me for any more information. I will update this as necessary.

I am in Sandy and would love to join. I may have to peel off and head home depending on what the wife has planned for the weekend.

Ok but that doesn't get us to far down the trail, but if that works well for everyone then no problem. See you guys there.
