These trucks are dood lures for sure. Only thing worse is my Ducati. Once came out of a cafe to find some lady sitting on my bike with her BF taking a picture of her on it.....:bang:
It was 6 pm and it had taken us two hours to get to the point from the good road so we decided to head back out so we would be closer to civilization today for our trek back to Vegas.
We made the return trip in 1.5 hours because we were going...
Not too much to report, we have been on a driving tour of South Dakota for a week or so.
Did get the manifolds cleaned up.
And some new gaskets for the intake /exhaust manifold connection.
Pictures don't do this place justice.
We are whipped. Only 186 mikes today but other than the stretch of Hwy 12 from Boulder to Escalante it was rough.
I'll get video later.
One more day tomorrow.
Once we got into the south Escalante NM we put our noses toward the north shore or Lake Powell.
The distance was not bad but it was ROUGH.
The little gatekeeper canyon we passed through was left. My 200 barely able to make it.
We wanted to see the devils backbone. Very cool. 12 to Escalante was beautiful. The burger at Nemo's was fantastic.
After lunch we struck out to explore Grand Staircase.
We tried to upload the Utah traverse but all we could get to load was...
We stopped at the visitor center and the grabbed some decent Mexican food at Chak Ballum in Torrey then we bailed out into Dixie National Forest.
We found a campsite at 10,580' by a lake. Unreal. Another awesome 200 mile off road day
Once we got back on Burr Trail we made a loop through Wolverine Loop then up past Boulder and into Capital Reef the back way through south creek. That's a pretty legit tough trail.
There is a cool in and out trail to the Capital Wash overlook. We ran into some Cajuns in a rental going up. It was funny. The wives bailed out. This land is huge and empty.
We woke up and made our way over to Capital Reef National Park.
The Henry Mountains are awesome. Glad we saw them
There are a lot of off road trails over there and I figured out the best way you catch them all.
The Burr Switchbacks were...
It’s a slow going project but I am getting there. One corner per day. For me, it’s hard to get into the positions under the truck and then discover my 17mm socket is over there and out of reach. That’s All on me, the job is quite easy to do and...
That was wishful thinking, terrain tamer France seem to think they are guarding a state secret and will not tell anyone when these things are supposed to arrive. 6 weeks from order and counting.
We had to backtrack 30+ miles but it was different scenery going that direction
At the crossroads we hit the road south to Hite Crossing.
We had to get gas for some and we went south to Ticaboo. I ran all of that from Green River to Doll...
