Quick trip to Bruce Canyon

[joneil]

I'm going to leave for Bryce Canyon NP tomorrow, 03/30. Plan to tent camp. Does anyone have any recommendations for some dirt road riding while I'm there?

I hate spell check, Bryce Canyon NP, Utah.

Not sure if you'll get this while you're up there but the 'North Fork County Road' is a great road to return on. It starts at the west end of Navajo Lake which is just west of Duck Creek. It continues south as a graded (smooth) dirt road through some beautiful areas. It will drop you out on Highway 9, near 'Clear Creek Ranch'. From there, the 9 going west will take you through the south end of Zion and then back to the 15. I'll see if I can find some pictures this afternoon.

Awesome Juiceman. I'm gonna try to find that route. Any problems with snow/mud this late in the year?

The weather channel site shows that it's still been pretty cold for the Duck Creek area so there may still be some snow, hard to tell though. No mud on that stretch, It was July though and pretty dry.

What a dream come true.
The place is amazing.

My map maker doesn't have a Bruce Canyon, where is it?

Sorry Don, typo, supposed to be Bryce. Canyon....I blame spell check for everything.

Juiceman, I missed the turn for Navajo Lake. Had a late breakfast in Mt Carmel Junction at the Pie place. The owner, Ed, very cool guy suggested the route through Pink Coral Sands (???). A little sandy for my like but beautiful. Dropped me back on the highway just SE of Colorado City, AZ.

Ah, "quick trip" had me looking more local to us. Shoulda known, what with that red rock in the thumb...
Ah-ha, found your parallel post on Bryce.
