In march, 2014, we went into the Vermilion Cliffs NM together with some good friends to visit the Soap Creek Tank area and the close by Beehives. While Soap Creek Tank sees regular visitors, The Beehives is not that popular.
Besides those two locations, we also visited an overlook at the rim. The trail to that overlook is not on any topo map.
In march, 2016, we showed good friends a nice round trip from House Rock Valley Road to Big Sink and from Big Sind to an area called Mini White Pocket (we called it earlier "Scrambled Rocks"). From Mini White Pocket, we went to Hole In The Rock Arch and had lunch there. From Hole In The Rock Arch, we went towards White Pocket. Along this connecting road is also a knoll, called Pottery Knoll. We had a short stop there and hiked around a little bit, but did not see a lot of pottery. Further along that road, we tried to spot the "Tall Man" petroglyph. But for some reason, we did not find it. After a short distance, we arrived at White Pocket. After having an extensive photo session at White Pocket, we went back to House Rock Valley Road via Poverty Flat.
Super schöne Eindrücke, mit blauen Himmel aber noch schöner. Wir hatten hier eine Nacht im Jeep verbracht und den grandiosen Sonnenuntergang begleitet....
Gibt es GPS Koordinaten von der miniwhitepocket?
In march, 2015 we had some time left and thought, we will do some easy run that day. It has been a long time, since we last drove Spring Canyon Point Rd. to the end. I also had some information about some side roads, which we wanted to explore.
One is a trail, located between the Dellenbaugh Tunnel turn off and Secret Spire, called the Amphietheater Trail. The other one is a small side step, shortly before Spring Canyon Point. That one is, according to an old trail book, the best overlook point on the Green River.
We also passed the side trail to Cliffhanger Arch.
All other side roads, we wanted to explore, had been either no more existing or closed.
An epic run with Offroadpassport.... Hole-In-The-Rock Trail, starting close to Halls Crossing.Hole-In-The-Rock Trail leaves pavement close to Halls Crossing, UT. This trail has nothing to do with Hole-In-The-Rock Road, which leads from Escalante, UT down to Lake Powell.
This is one of the most scenic trails, I ever drove. We did a two day trip with one overnight stay close to the end of the Hole-In-The-Rock Trail. This is definitely a difficult trail and not as easy as Hole-In-The-Rock Road.
This event was an Offroadpassport run.
As I had some time on my way to Moab, I drove the loop trails around Temple Mountain in the San Rafael Swell.
Those two trails around Temple Mountain have a 5/8 rating in one of the guide.books, but besides some washouts, which needed some careful driving, there was nothing really serious.
After I was back on Temple Mountain Road further north, I went through Rods Valley to Swasey Cabin. After a short visit there, I went to the Lone Warrior panel close by and then to Dutchman Arch on the other side of I70. After leaving Dutchman Arch, I checked out the Head of Sindbad panels and from there I went to the Temple Mountain exit of I70.
This was a fun trip and I had excellent weather. I did not meet anybody all day.
