Dean, thank you, as always, for your kind words; you are not only one of SP's top contributors and part of the backbone of this site but also one of its top gentlemen.
I will actually be in the Swell and Capitol Reef around Columbus Day Weekend. If your travels take you there around that time, I'd be honored to get together for an outing in either place.
I am going to have to check this loop out this year. What kind of shape is the unpaved road from Hwy 24 in? I have been on many of the back country dirt roads in the area and some can be driven in a passenger car while others require high clearance 4WD vehicles.
In case you still haven't made it there, I thought you might want to know I was there again today and the road is now paved all the way to the trailhead.

Great pageI am going to have to check this loop out this year. What kind of shape is the unpaved road from Hwy 24 in? I have been on many of the back country dirt roads in the area and some can be driven in a passenger car while others require high clearance 4WD vehicles.
Thanks for making the page!

Re: Great pageThanks for checking it out and commenting, and I hope you do get out there.
Maps show the road as unimproved, but you should have no problem on it in a passenger car. Beyond there, though, the road does get rougher.

Re: Great pageThanks for the info! Now that it seems that I should be able to get there in my car, I will definitely have to get down there.
