Conquering the Burr Trail: 

A VR Backroad Odyssey Through Utah's Heart

Ever dream of venturing into a land where ancient canyons whisper secrets and panoramic vistas steal your breath away? Where the road itself is an adventure, twisting through time and breathtaking beauty? Then buckle up, my friends, because today we're conquering the legendary Burr Trail Loop! This isn't just a drive; it's an immersion into the raw, untamed heart of Utah, a 90-mile backroad odyssey that will leave you utterly spellbound. This adventure has been on my bucket list for years, ever since my deceased Dad, a fellow adventurer, shared how much he loved it. It took time and the perfect conditions, but finally, the stars aligned.

The Golden Nugget 🌟
Don't Miss This: Trinity Arch in Upper Muley Twist Canyon is quite possibly the most beautiful and unique arch I have ever seen. It’s a spectacular marvel where three distinct arches intertwine in a breathtaking embrace. It is an absolute must-see highlight of the journey. We were also just so blown away that when we managed to find the Frog Canyon Trail that was close to the petrofied wood marked on Gaia maps.  Around this area there was so much Petrified Wood, and we didn't need to hike the mile trail to find it.  It was like a treasure trove of amazing.

The "Feeling" of the Drive: This drive had so many awe moments that blew me away. I was not expecting this area to wow me so much.  The switchbacks were some of my very favorite we have driven.  The Muley Drive to see the incredible arches was full of so much wonder.  They really are stunning and some of my favorite arches.  There was just so man spots that you couldn't help but pull over and aah at the canyon, or hoodoos.  It was a fantastic adventure! If you have your Google map downloaded, and some good clearance, and a full tank of gas, this is an adventure you wont want to miss. 

Favorite "Secret" Stop: 

There was multiple, but a few were at the end of Long Canyon to see the Hoodoos, and the epic Vista View. 

 Tips for Other Drivers:  If you go in the late spring when they have had a chance to fix the dirt roads, or Early Fall before the Weather startes to ruin the roads, then I think you will have a good chance of success. We started the Muley Dirt road and were almost ready to turn around thinking it was going to be too hard for our ORVilla, but we got encouraged to go for it After the first scary section, it was not bad at all, and the Arches, and the hike to the incredible Vista View was so worth it!
