    Default Hole in the Rock Trail - May 14-18



    It’s a month away now and I know we had quite a few folks interested in doing this Southern Utah classic 35+ mile one way, out and back. It’s rated Difficult and it’s extremely remote and far from any services. The planning thread has a lot of YouTube videos of folks doing this trail so we know where the hardest and sketchiest sections are located. We will probably spend 2 nights on the trail and we might have another day and night to spend exploring something else (San Rafael Swell was suggested & would be a great option.

    So, I’m itching to post the event on the calendar but will let this steep for a few days and hopefully we can get a good idea of who is still interested and planning to join!

    I'm absolutely interested, but cannot do that weekend. I am currently free almost any weekend after that one.

    IDK how I did it, but I took the 18th to 22th off for this, even put Hole In The Rock in my schedule for that time. I'm working on it...

    My apologies, I had no work conflicts so I thought I was good to go, but my wife has a medical appointment that monday which is why she switched the off days in our schedule. Have fun!

    I just cancelled all my clients for the 20th, so now I do not have to drive home until the 19th. I'm good for one extra day.

    yes...I am holding out on full commitment more than I wanted to, but....I am continually monitoring my back injury and how much sitting (specifically in a driver seat) it can handle. We have also been packing up our house getting ready for the first big moving weekend coming up this weekend. So after 4 days of loading and unloading a big moving truck, plus the 15 hour drive etc, we'll see how things feel. I also have my first pre-op consultation for the microdiscectomy on Tues right after the moving weekend (which is just a couple days before I would head to UT). Its going to be a little bit of a last minute call...

    I'm in! I was traveling for work and have been getting absolute crushed since I got back, but I do have someone to cover for me now so I'm in! I will be more responsive to plan details and also going through my camping gear this weekend. Also have a story about the clutch job on the TJ good God....

    I'm really glad to hear this, I was seriously thinking about dropping out or cancelling but I feel having at least 5 rigs should be good! Looking forward to seeing you again Steve, is the Rubicon back up and running?

    Can we consolidate the vital information for the trip in this thread?

    Permits needed? - Yes, $30, 7 day pass for Glen Canyon NRA (how/where do we get this?)
    Coordinates for meetup?
    GPX / other track information?

    Dispersed camping options for Saturday night (travel day)?

    I don't know where exactly where we are going and I will need to understand that all this weekend.
