Monday morning we packed on and mushed on towards the Mineral Bottom exit of the WRT. Hardscrabble was the first interesting climb of the morning shortly followed by a steep narrow shoot between the Green River and the canyon wall.
The turn up Hardscrabble
Then the trail turns in to a fun fast sandy ride through a river bed
Then you drop off the end of the world down on to the narrow run for a while
The Dodge with the camper ran into a little clearance problem on one of the cliff wall overhangs. One of the GoPro videos captures it. Luckily nothing on the camper was harmed where the crossbar took the blunt of the hit.
Really cool old corral right in the canyon wall along the way
That is where the Canyonlands National Park ends and BLM land begins for the rest of the journey out
While there isn’t any really difficult wheeling on the WRT sign is pretty much spot on
The climb up Mineral Bottom Rd offers a long steep climb
With some old wrecks off to the side

Airing the tires up at the 313 intersection before we’re back on pavement for a few hours. Man, somewhere between the river bed run and the top of the canyon we sure hit a lot of mud
