@new to landrover

That is an amazing looking trip. Just stellar shots.




A little twisty forest track action and a spot of camping.

Thanks!, glad I was able to inspire a trip!

I highly suggest buying this book ahead of your trip so you can plan your routes, all of the ones we did are "green" easy trails, with the exception of "fins n things" which has moderate and difficult sections. I would stay away from "extreme" trails unless you want to risk damaging bumpers, etc.

^^ The Wells book is a must-have in SE Utah, even if you’ve done the trails before because so many of them will get you lost on crisscrossing alternates and either take hours longer than you intended or shortchange you on some part of the trail you wanted to do. I first bought a copy in town in 2002; the current edition is well worth upgrading to if you have an old one. For one thing, it’s spiral- rather than glue-bound and lies open on your seat so much easier.
