Bonneville Salt Flats, Moab and Canyonlands 2016

For the eagle eyed amongst you, I had the dates wrong on this originally so I've updated it. I've also added the spectacular Canyon de Chelley to the trip which is the Navajo Sacred Canyon and a great place to spend a few hours hiking if you want to.

This really is a mega canyon trip and ticks a lot of places off the bucket list. Still a few spaces left so pm me for more details.

And of course 12 runs through Boulder from where the Burr Trail runs to Bullfrog and you can then catch the ferry to Hall's Crossing. :D

Fiddling on Basecamp - looks good....

The route does go to Mexican Hat then south on the 163 as far as i can see so it would seem you could get your picture Pete.


Edit; Bilko just beat me to it. Shouldn't you be punching a truck along somewhere! :D

Rare day off to catch up with everything else Tony! Coming in from the north gives a much better ride into the valley in my opinion and you will get this shot. Our hotel in Mexican Hat is only 20 miles north of the valley.
