Canyonlands Maze District - Sunset Pass to Dollhouse #2

Today we'll travel from #2 Sunset Pass to #3 Dollhouse 2. While yesterday was fairly easy, today will have some obstacles that both high clearance as well as four wheel drive will be needed.

Easy travel - smooth, quick. Some dust from Trent or Matt visible ahead.

Some green

Letting traffic pass on a one-lane trail. This might have happened five, likely less than ten times, in the 180 miles we'll have on the trails.

Matt craning out the window for a better view of the drop coming up.

I think these are the La Sal mountains east of Moab.

From this location to the mountain peaks - about 49 miles

Riding in a wash - nearing the Dollhouse area

Trent looking for a spotter at the slot rock area.

Dollhouse campsite #1 is up to the left Dollhouse campsite #2 is up to the right - our spot for the night.

Waiting for the temp to drop a bit before setting up the tent I walked around a rock and found a nice spot of shade... and guess what - it's looking towards Moab and there's some cellular coverage. A few phone calls, text messages along with an e-mail or two. A nice office! I do not mind "working" while on vacation. If I could always have an office this nice. Panorama Click for a larger size

Moab is left of center (left of the La Sal mountains) about 35 miles distant.

The tent's set. Yes, a nice campsite.

Jeep parked on a slight slope for the morning start. Strap at the ready (it was used earlier in the day at a flat luch spot for a pull start).

Dollhouse #1 is over there somewhere (left-ish area of the picture).

One last voice-mail / text / e-mail connection for the day.
