Recommended Posts

What: Expedition Utah would like to invite you to join us for our first Quarterly Trail Ride! For our first outing we will be traveling the historic Pony Express Trail from Five Mile Pass to Wendover. We will be stopping at various historical markers along the way, going through Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge, Calleo and Gold Hill.

 

When: January 14th at 8:00am. This is an all day affair covering 130+ miles, so be sure to bring food for lunch and plenty of water and extra fuel if you think you'll need it.

 

Where: Meet at the crossroads of UT 73 and Faust Road near Five Mile Pass. [Map] Look for the Nissan Pathfinder with an Expedition Utah banner attached to it.

 

We will be monitoring CB channel 21.

 

Who: Anyone and everyone. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or someone just getting into exploring Utah's backcountry and varied historical sites we encourage you to come out. There is no group size limit for this event, but please RSVP so we know who to expect.

 

Required Equipment: 4-Wheel Drive vehicle. While this is a well maintained route, if it gets wet, it can become muddy and rutted.

 

Suggested Equipment: CB Radio. We'll be covering a great deal of distance and it is very convenient to be able to communicate with everyone while moving.

Tools, tow strap, spare parts, fluids. While we hope things like these are not needed, always a good idea to have just in case.

What is Expedition Utah? Expedition Utah is a website and forum dedicated to vehicle assisted exploration of Utah's beautiful and varied backcountry. We strive to provide an online repository of information to help people plan their next adventures and a forum to let them discuss it with others who share their passion. Our Quarterly Trail Rides are designed to move that experience off the computer and into the real world by highlighting Utah's thousands and thousands of miles of scenic backroads.
