Tracks: Panguitch to Escalante
09/02/21 at 20:08:30
 
So, I have tracks that take me to Circleville, then across Rocky Ford / Antimony and toward Escalante, but with Rocky Ford being shut down, what alternatives exist? I suppose I could ride toward Bryce/Rubys, cross the highway toward Pine Lake, up/over Powell Point and then pavement a few miles into Escalante (done that route already).

One other alternative is to run toward Bryce, then bank back North on Cottonwood and then into Antimony, bypassing Rocky Ford..

Alternatives appreciated.

Here's what I'm trying to solve for. Instead of heading south, then running way up north again, there has to be a route from the Green Track to the Red track into Escalante and across HWY22.

via Google Earth, I can see that if I can make it across Johns Valley Rd, Cross Widtsoe, I can make it up the mountain via Escalante Canyon.

Thats correct !! But if you didnt want to go that way.. when you get to the top you can go north across Griffin Top if you want !!

So, ~130 miles later and we did a decent loop from Panguitch to Escalante and back. Not too many vehicles on the trails, a few mountain bikers near Casto and a few super fast moving trucks heading up to Griffin Top.

Good lunch in Escalante, fueled up and RTB..
