near Dead Horse Point?
Spending a 3-4 days here waiting for clear skies. Anyone in the area? Would like to explore some of the 4wd trails, but not keen on going it alone.

It was a bit more than I was expecting, but I did make it across the full Gemini Bridges road. I'm amazed it's classified as an "EASY" trail, the first 7 miles to the bridges from 313 are easy, just a dirt road. The next few miles down into the canyon were steep and over bare rock, but nothing too bad. The last few miles, climbing out of the canyon up the side of a mountain on steep winding trail strewn with loose rocks, the "High Shelf Road" - that was a full pucker factor drive. Drove it all in 4-low and first gear.
