Lester and Ruth will be leading easy to moderate trails in the Price Utah area Sept. 22,23 and 24. The plan is as follows:
Sept. 22th – meet at the parking lot of the Holiday Inn (925 Westwood Blvd) in Price at 1:00PM, after having lunch. We will drive a relatively easy trail north of Price this afternoon.
Sept. 23th – Meet at the parking lot of the Holiday Inn in Price at 9:00am, with lunch, water, snacks and a full tank of gas. Today’s route is Dry Canyon Trail – 27 miles long; rated a 3; starts south of Price and ends in Nine Mile canyon. We do not plan to explore Nine Mile Canyon (that was done on a previous trip); however, if time allows we hope to connect with Wrinkle Road on the opposite side of Nine Mile Canyon. While we have some directions for this road, there is not much info available on its condition. Plan a full day.
Sept. 24th – Meet at the parking lot of the Holiday Inn in Price at 9:00am, with lunch, water, snacks and a full tank of gas. Today’s trail is North Skyline Drive; believed to be one of the most well-known trails in UT and breathtaking. It is also part of the Great Western Trail. Rated a 2 / 3; 28 miles long. From here we plan a return by way of paved roads through the San Rafael Swell and I-70.
For those of you who are campers, I think there are camping facilities in the area but we have not researched these.
Please contact us with any questions.
