I recently returned from a backcountry bike trip on the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park near Moab Utah. We were a mixed group of twelve riders with three high ground clearance support vehicles coming after us. We started near the
Island in the Sky
Visitor Center and camped four nights along the trail. -
Fisher Towers

Our first stop in Utah was Fisher Towers along the
back road
to Moab. I had been here before on my trips to Canyonlands. These stark, vertical towers are popular with climbers and there is a small primitive campground on site. We spent the better part of our day hiking the main in-and-out trail. It did not disappoint! We decided to camp there in the late afternoon. There was frost everywhere when we got up the next day. From there we moved on to Arches National Park and Vermilion Cliffs! -
The Maze 2019
Camping Canyonlands Galleries Hdr Panoramas Travel 2019
It would be hard to top our 4WD/bike trip to the White Rim in Canyonlands last year, but entering the isolated subunit called The Maze was a strong contender! This immense National Park is divided into three major areas that are completely isolated from each other. The Maze lies mostly on the western side of the Green River with the southern-most Dollhouse area just below the confluence with the Colorado. As we did last year, we stopped at Fisher Towers and Moab along the way (see photo gallery below).
