Coal Wash

Wood Canyon is a difficult and long crossing along the west rim of the San Rafael Swell upheaval. You will cross prairies and zig-zag through trees, all with incredible views of the surrounding mountains. The views are best enjoyed traveling south to north. Along the trail, there are various challenges for stock and slightly modified 4x4 vehicles. The trail has two difficult hills that lead to a narrow rocky canyon. You will need experience on remote and difficult trails and have a reliable and durable vehicle with low-range gearing and durable offroad tires. Camping is found in the trees on the southern portion of the route. The sites are small, with one vehicle max.
