K, Clint and I went out last May and missed kicking that trails butt "by that much".
Dates are locked in as September 6th through the 14th. Newest kinda sorta trip plan is in post #10.
I wanna go back. Curtman? Chad? Jon? Sparks? Cybergasm? Others? It'll have ya giggling like little girls fer years. Anyone else? Please please please.
I kin even do regular vacation stuff ifin folks want. A PU truck ur Hoe (aka Tahoe) kin do the west side if folks want. Actually a car or mini van these days. There are campgrounds and motels in Escalante. Primative camping (free) just out of town on the trail. A modified rig is a lot less work for the section south of Halls Crossing on the east side. Plan on a bit of vehicle damage if you take a stock truck on this section. Need to camp one night on the trail but there are family unit 3 bedroom trailers that can be rented at the campground in Halls Crossing. Again primative camping just down the road on the trail. After that there is the Cow Tank section. That is the second most difficult section. Nothing to test a modified truck but a little caution would be needed for a stocker. Rooms fer rent and campgrounds in Blanding. And primative camping out of town. The last section to San Juan Hill is really nice if you by pass a section of the original trail that is now atv width. Last time I was on that section was with Mule (96 full size Bronco) and it was hard on the paint.
First time I did HITR http://www.loneriders.com/campfire_tales/1996/9605_campfire_tales/9605_campfire_tales.html
Last time I did it in the spring will be in a series of articles in 4WheelDrive magazine starting with Novembers 2011 issue that is due out on the news stands and in folks mail boxes this month.
