Orange Trail 01

Outside Green River, Utah, the Orange Trail is a long OHV loop created by Bill Thompson over 15 years. The trail's entirety will be broken up into sections on this website. This portion of the loop is scenic, and at times it follows The Old Spanish Trail; keep an eye out for the old trail markers. This portion of the Orange Trail is one of the more challenging sections requiring experienced drivers with a capable 4x4. The trail has several rocky sections that require low-range gearing and high ground clearance. A difficult section with rock ledges on a hill may require a spotter and traction aids. Orange Trail is ideal for stock 4x4s owners who desire a challenge. The colorful rocks and dramatic contrast in the landscape create an alien planet feeling. While sporadic rock fire rings were found along the route, the ground was very hard and rocky for tent camping.
