    Yamhill, OR to SLC, UT offroad routes?

    Thank you! It's going pretty well. My budget isn't coming along. We had a couple of emergencies that pulled my maintenance/repairs/upgrades budget in other directions, so I really need to determine if I'll be able to get my '97 in worthy condition on time.

    Yamhill, OR to SLC, UT offroad routes?

    Currently planned upgrades: -Sliders and undercarriage/cat armor for both rigs -Winch for the Lexus -70% possibility of a rear locker for the 92 -New shocks for the 97. I've got OME Mediums in the rear thanks to a mistake at the shop. Need heavies or a different option. I load pretty heavy and...

    Yamhill, OR to SLC, UT offroad routes?

    My daughter left for college and I delivered her open diff '92 FJ80 to my brother in Yamhill, Oregon. He's already added a 9k winch and is planning more upgrades and maintenance, so this is a win. When she finishes in 2 years and comes home, we're planning an offroad trip to return the rig to...

    I would also recommend that if you do come out and you do decide to do any exploring, go to the Expedition Utah forum. There's a section there where you can post up your plans and seek out a travel buddy. There are a lot of people that would enjoy going with you, and it's always better to...

    I had some confusing typos in this paragraph. Let me fix them: If you DON'T want to do the wedge overlook head down to Capitol Reef. There's a ton to see down there. Upper Muley Twist on the Burr trail is a good drive and will exercise your GX a little, but you'll make it. Take the short...

    A good easy trip for you would be 9 Mile canyon. The roads are graded and there are petroglyphs and runs right on the road or a short hike from it. You can stay in Price or Vernal. The start of that drive is about 2 hours outside of Salt Lake. 9 Mile canyon is actually about 45 miles long...

    Not at all. So, if I understand, you want to take 2-3 days exploring, but return to a hotel each night. That's totally doable. Do you want to see everything from the car, or do you want to get some hiking in?

    @ljerryd, I'd love to help you if you can be more specific of what you want to see and how much time you want to be out. There are a lot of opportunities.

    "Within a few hours of Salt Lake City" you have literally thousands of miles of trails that you could do. What are you looking for? Desert? Alpine forest? Lakes? Hikes? Waterfalls? Glaciers? Red Rock? When you say "a few hours", do you mean up to a 3 hour drive from SLC then any number of hours...

    You should not have said that...now it's just about gas money and having my 80 in good enough working order that you don't have to fix it every time we stop.

    Jason, it was great to meet you and your wife and it was a good time. Next time it won't be so intense. I'd liked to see the end of Poison Springs road.

    Yes. I'm bringing 10 gallons for me. You probably only need 5.

    Right now we are planning to meet at the gas station in Green River, UT at 7:00 pm. Should we miss someone there we'll be camping off a side road of the Wild Horse Mesa road. That side road takes off to the South at 38.5763, -110.73923. We'll leave a Toyota at the offshoot that leads to our...

    Put it together and come out and we'll hit some trails that will make your drive worthwhile. This weekend is a good ROI for a 4 or 5 hour drive, maybe even 8 if you don't get down there much. From Northern California, I would want more. More scenery, more slot canyons, more arches, and more...

    2 days, but you can come for just one. We have what we need to be safe, but there's always room for a couple more. If you can only make it for one day or the other I can tell you where and when to meet us.
