Rancher we were spending time with up there pointed out two landing strips...not used much now. They were north of the river in the Glen Canyon rec area.

Saw a couple planes dropping in near Hite Crossing to pick up a bike tour group from Moab...lol, I imagine that was cheap. The strip is next to the hwy on the in between the two bridges.

No Alcohol...??

We will spend a week at the Kentucky horse park competing then do the trip in reverse about 5000 miles total. After that Its snow camping time in the Sierras and Cascades


Sounds like such an awesome trip.

We're currently parked on some land 20 miles N/Eish of Richfield. Snow is a coming tonight I believe...

What a beautiful area. We were down in Fry canyon area..had to make a quick hop up to the "hospital" after bike met road...20 miles back in the Glen Canyon area. Should have invited you up for steak dinner!


I live 23 miles west of Richfield in Fremont Indian State Park.

Sure hope all is OK from the bike accident.

You should wake up to the white stuff. 🙂

Would have loved to have met you.

Nice shop.

I just winterized mine today after using it the last several days in Eastern MT. But, I think I have to take a look at the generator to see if the vent hose is clogged. Still tbd is winterize the trailer. I have electric heat blowing into the compartment with the pump, drained the water, etc. Still tbd to run rv antifreeze through the lines.


Thanks Jim, just wish it was mine.

I need mine for work for a little while. I just ordered tank heaters for the black and gray and hopefully use it through out the winter.

specta probably has higher electric bills, heating bills, maintenance expenses and pays more in taxes.
