Utah Adventure – 05/07/24 – 05/11/24

Description

Event Location: Kanab, Utah

May is the perfect time to take a 4-wheel drive trip through Utah, with its warm weather and stunning natural beauty. One of the highlights of your trip will be visiting the pink coral sand dunes, which are located in the southwestern part of the state. These dunes, which get their distinctive color from the presence of a type of algae, are a popular spot for off-roading. We stay in designated areas to protect the delicate ecosystem of the dunes.

After visiting the sand dunes, We will camp along the Barracks Trail. The BLM warns that it rarely visits the area so travelers should be completely self-sufficient.

The next day we will check out White Pockets, which are another popular destination that requires 4-wheel drive due to the heavy sand. The White Pockets, which are formed by the weathering of the sandstone, are a great place to explore and photograph.

 

Then we will head to the San Rafael Swell, which is located in central Utah. The Swell is a vast area of rugged terrain that is perfect for 4-wheel drive adventures. There are a number of trails and backroads that can be explored in a 4-wheel drive vehicle, and you’ll have the opportunity to see some of the most breathtaking scenery in the state. We plan to spend several days in the Swell and will set up a base camp.

Overall, a 4-wheel drive trip through Utah in May is an exciting and rewarding way to experience the state’s diverse landscape and natural beauty.
