💡 Tips from Dan

Your Road Warrior Guide

  • Remember to bring a hat and sunscreen, the Utah sun can be quite strong.
  • Make sure you have a full tank of gas before you set off, services are limited along the way.
  • Pack a picnic, there aren't many dining options around.
  • Tread carefully and respect the site, it's historical heritage.
  • Keep an eye out for wildlife, you might spot desert dwellers like lizards or jackrabbits.

What Dan Packs

Based on what you'll be doing, Dan recommends:

Insulated Water Bottle

Essential

Keeps water cold for hours. Hydration is critical in desert heat.

Polarized Sunglasses

Essential

UV reflection off rock and water is intense. Protect your eyes.
