Jason,
We are all thrilled that you and the clan will make this run. For planning purposes, our first night camp will likely be near the beginning of Johns Canyon off of Johns Canyon road. BLM Road 244 west of highway 163 just north of Mexican Hat.
We will make Camp on the west side of the trail maybe an hour or so before sunset on 02/15/19. We will likely depart Camp between 8:30 and 9. Towards or next sights and Camp spot. I’m trying to make all camping and travel easy by staying on BLM land

Phil introduced me to this trail 3 plus years ago and I found the views spectacular.
Simple view, from highwa 163
Stay tuned everyone.
This trip involves a lot of driving and knowing our vehicle and fuel limitation. While the roads may be dirt, weather can change quickly and alter our paths. Camping will likely be cold at night, this is not a camping trip to be ill prepared. Get your vehicles ready, check your gear, assume that we might spread out a bit depending on weather and camping available
Any permits required?

Will most likely just be erin and i. I know the area fairly well, so makes sense to me. Haevemt looked up close at a map yer, but i will tomorrow.
Hey @Rudster im 90% in, and I would be bringing my Moab trailer. I think @brices123 was inquiring about trailer too, not sure if he is as well.
Quick question, just to confirm. Driving up Friday the 15th, 3 nights camping, returning on Monday the 18th right?
Anyone planning bringing any kids with them? I was debating bringing my oldest boy (8 yr old), but only if other people have kids along.

Correct.
Looking at the list of confirmed, I’m not sure if anyone else is bringing any young adults or children.
I would like to get in on this run if there ends up being room. Short drive from Moab.
Finally got the official go-ahead from work for the time off. You can move me from the maybe to the yes list. I'll be driving solo, planning on towing my Moab trailer along. @Rudster and @brices123 let me know if you guys are bringing trailers as well
