GG: That's just one of the nice things about Utah. Within a few miles of the metro Salt Lake City area, a person can ride, hike, peak-bag or go rappelling without too much fuel. Hemingray: Yes, Skyline Drive runs along the top of the ridge, up to and past the radar station, then it drops down the ea...

Skyline Drive (Wasatch Front, Salt Lake City Utah)
Well, the weather was perfect for a bit of riding today (temps at 9000 feet were in the mid 60's, while the valley below was high 90's). Started off behind the "B" in Bountiful, travelled all the way to the East of Kaysville, almost to Morgan and as far South/East as behind the State Capitol. First,...

Yep, I do enjoy the multi-purpose nature of the winch. I've had to use mine on a few occasions to pull a dead-ATV up and into trailer(s), assist in getting my Durango out of the mud (funny seeing a Kawi ATV winched to a Durango) and I've used it to pull down trees blocking the trail path. It's also ...

Well, the trail was definitely open on July 1st. I came up from the 01 (FISP), connected to the 06, then through Adelaide campground, through Meadow, Kanosh, through the KOA. Stopped for lunch at the gas station in Kanosh, then back up the way I came, but returned via the 10 and 22 trails through Jo...

The helmet came in handy on this last trip: While trying to come back, we came across a 25' long by 2.5' thick snow drift and we had no choice but to cross it. My brother-in-law (on his Yamaha motorcycle) went through no issue. I got a slight running start, hydro-planed the entire distance, got side...

Looks awesome! Definitely looks like it should be put on the chort list for an upcoming ride. Quite a bit of riding in that part of the country, but this is the spot <N 41° 57.566 W 111° 27.182> where (if you go all the way up and beyond) to this point: N41 58.599 W111 27.763, you'll certainly earn...

Bear Lake (Utah/Idaho)
Spent the day yesterday exploring the trails to the South/West of Bear Lake (all the way up to Logan Canyon / US89). Here are a few photos from yesterday's outing. Today, we plan on riding further up the North West side where we encountered some of the most butt puckering trails around. I hope to se...

Yeah, GG is usually quite the "chatty Kathy". Even with fuel prices being +$4/gal here, I've continued to ride. Last week, +60 miles in the Eureka, Utah area. This weekend, I'm heading North to Bear Lake (between Utah and Idaho), and the following weekend, I'm heading down to Central Utah for a full...
