Finally getting to go to Bronco Rodeo in Moab on Saturday. Plan on hitting up Arches and Dead Horse St Park on Friday. Anywhere else I should check out while out there? Never been so any ideas are welcomed.
To avoid any waiting in line at Arches main entrance, you could wander up 191 and a little past 313 is Willow Springs Road, the back way into the park. You enter the park at Balanced Rock. it’s an easy sandy, sometimes rocky road. Along the way is a marked stop to see dinasour footprints.
If you have TrailsOffroad app or OnX Off-road, or even the Funtreks Moab guide you could drive easy rated Gemini Bridges trail from 191 over to 313 and then hang a left to go to Dead Horse.
way down 128 is Fisher Towers. A fun hike if you are tired of sitting.
Heading there on Oct 2nd. Will by my Second time there and stoked to go. Went to Offroadeo in Las Vegas in May and it was great. Had more technical trails in my opinion since a lot of the features were hand built but for my money Vegas doesn’t hold a candle to the stunning landscape in the Moab area and driving the broncos around in public trails. Then there’s Arches and Canyonlands right up 191. Awesome area for sure.
I'm going to the Las Vegas Off-Rodeo because it most closely resembles quite a bit of the terrain I've done in the past and will do in the future. There is actually a lot of public lands in the general area, but you may need to drive some distance to get beyond the main areas of private land around the metro area. Death Valley National Park a bit farther away has some amazing trails.
