I concur with many here, don’t go into the Valley of the Gods, pulling a trailer the length you pull.
This is a good way to scrape off your steps or dump pipes. There are many locations with areas that you will be high centered on, like pictured above, will be difficult to negotiate without dropping a wheel, or two, on the trailer. Then you have a water crossing at the north end. If you want, come in from the west end, but would have a difficult time turning around and heading back out the west side (Moki Dugway side).
Goosenecks is a beautiful area, but it is a campground and a fee for using this area. But, there is great possibilities for you to find here. Since you asked for boondocking locations, I tend not to recommend campgrounds in a Boondocking forum.
Just like with my rig, I know when to stop and not go any further, I suspect you are the same. There are many locations in and around the Monument Valley area. But be aware this is Indian Nation and many locations are heavily restricted. The best thing to do, is just ask. Stop in Monument Valley and check for additional locations. There is a spot, I use every time pass through, just 5 miles north of the prime viewing area. But you would not be able to get back there, pulling a trailer your size. This is a location that is often used for staging movie companies, while in the area for filming. I found out about it just by talking to one of the crew, one day.
Have fun and it is a place not to be missed!
