Twitchell Canyon, watch your step.

This overlook is about 25ft off of NPS 279 in the G.C.N.R.A.

Another desolate landscap on the Croton Road

As it climbs up the burning hills towards the Kaiparowits Plateau - steep, narrow, washed out, and very remote.

Smoky Mountain Road

Another place called Little Valley, this time on the North side of the Kaiparowits Plateau, you know you've traveled far in one day when place names start to repeat.

Hole in the Rock Road, Devils Garden Outstanding Natural Area

Metate Arch

A good sunset can make for some scenic wheeling.
Cedar Wash Road, parked at the trail head for Cedar Wash Arch

Just a short hike to reach the rim of Cedar Wash to overlook the arch and listen to a coyote announce nightfall in hills across the way.

Jared, in all the years of parking our houseboat at the base of Gunsight, I never knew that there were Jeep trails on the butte across the bay! Show up there the first week of Sept and we can wave to each other form across the bay........

Thanks CanMan, Randy has that new camera, trying to keep up with his weekend adventures now would be a full time job!

Does look like a great place to park a Houseboat Jeff. Might be down that way next Sept too.

The Lampstand, with Boulder Mountain above the Circle Cliffs in the distance.

A spur road off the north side of the Burr Trail.
Thus ended my 08' 4th of July weekend trip.

They're not quite as cool as the other pictures I've seen here, but here's a few of my favorites. Neither of them are really wheeling pics, but they're scenic I guess...

Taken on some trail on Mt. Tussey, outside of State College, PA.

Taken off of High Knob overlook in Sullivan County, PA.

So many to choose from - but here's some favorites.

This one's from some small trail between Woodland Park and the back side of the Air Force Academy property, just west of Colorado Springs.

And this one's from Billing's Lake (I think?), outside Buena Vista, it's not a hard trail, even a stock jeep would have no problems.

i'd be interested in the hi-res of this, if you have it... that's an awesome picture.
