Join us for a fun week of early season riding in Utah’s San Rafael Swell area. Located just southwest of Green River, this area offers a great deal of riding suitable to all rider skills and bikes. The main roads and much of the area to the north are great for big bikes and easy riding, while the south and the numbered trails are amazing for small bikes and technical riding. (who’s up for doing “5 miles of hell” with me?)
I will be bringing both bikes (Africa Twin and XR650R) But will mostly be leading technical dirt bike rides on the trails. However, one day I will definitely lead a long loop ride thru Capital Reef, and Boulder Canyon and Burr Trail. (250ish miles, I can’t remember exactly). Goblin Valley is also a 10 minute ride from camp and is an out of this world experience.
We will be camping at Temple Mountain Campground

Temps will likely be in the 40’s or cooler at night so plan accordingly
There are vault toilets available but please bring your own TP as they may be out. The nearest town is Green River. Last year the State Park was not allowing walk in showers due to low water levels. Brian has offered his camp shower but you will need to provide your own water. Please bring at least 10 gallons of fuel to re-fuel in camp and avoid trips into town.
Please make sure your bike is in proper mechanical condition with good off road tires. Bring plenty of water both for camp and for on the bike as there is no water available there. I will have my Coleman stove and camp kitchen and anyone is welcome to use it.
Please contact me with any questions or comments
