Gemini Bridges is an extremely easy drive when dry. I did not require 4wd at all on it. Still, it’s definitely worth a visit as the views are great. Watch out for bikers and slow down to keep the dust low for them. Might want to bring your hiking boots or mountain bike along on this one!

Did this trail twice on my first trip to Moab. We camped at waypoint 5 and drove out at dark to see the sunrise before making the descent to the highway.

This was a fun trail that we used as a scenic route driving from Canyonlands to Moab. We completed the trail in about 45 minutes to an house. Great views and very scenic.

Trail in good shape with no issues other than summer heat. Ran with a group of 9 vehicles from Venture Overland /Overland Bound.
Combine this with Long Canyon for a nice loop.

Super fun trail and a great intro to offroading in Moab. We saw the sunrise at Gemini Bridges, pretty cool place and worth the very short hike down to see it.

We mostly had the trail to ourselves. Trail was fun and a great loop is to follow Gemini Bridges road west to the highway, turn south towards Canyonlands and follow signs to dead horse and take Long Canyon Road back to town.

Picturesque 2WD road. Took it up to Bull Canyon to hike under the bridges, the back to the trail to drive to the top. Explored the bridges from the top prior to exploring a few of the spur roads in the area and heading to Long canyon. Easy day but a good introduction to the area.

Took some extra time to hike around the Gemini Bridges. Drove the trail the opposite way than this guide and the fun began east of waypoint 13

Drove Gemini Bridges on two days, 11th and 12th of March; made updates to photos on the guide, as well as guides for numerous other roads--Bull Canyon, Surprise Overlook, etc. Gemini was recently graded so it was about as smooth as it could possibly be. This will change as the spring 'wheeling season goes on, and traffic erodes the soft fill along the stone ledges.

The road was well graded and much more smooth than normal.

Ran this over to catch Gold Bar Rim. The shelf road portion was chewed up and a little more rough than normal. No rating change.

I ran the first portion of this trail to access a few others in the area. After Easter Jeep Safari the past couple of days, the trail has been chewed up quite a bit more but there are no major trail changes. It was a beautiful day and very dry so the dust was at its peak.

Visited Moab for a long weekend in early March (2-6) to update some existing trail guides and write a few new ones. We base-camped in Bride Arch Canyon (Waypoint 4 of the Gemini Bridges Road) for four nights.
Weather was cold at first (mid-twenties at night), and then warmer but terribly windy. The wind on Sunday evening was reported in Moab at 61mph, according to a store clerk I spoke to Monday morning. In our little canyon, I'm confident that it was closer to 70mph!
The scenery was, as always, gorgeous in Moab. Gemini Bridges usually provides a great view to the east (La Salle Mountains), but the area was socked-in with clouds and snow much of our trip. Despite this, we had a fantastic off-road adventure, with memories to last a lifetime.

Having the opportunity to run this trail again, I was able to run it from west to east. This is a "completely" different trail when you run it in this direction. The intricate beauty really jumps out with improved views of everything. I also think driving down the shelf road seems a heck of a lot less bumpy. We also camped at Bride Arch, and it was a perfect location for several rigs to meet up and basecamp. From that location were we able to hit several different trails in the area without much of a drive. However awesome all this was, we got hit with one hell of a windstorm! The attached video gives you an idea of what it is like being in an Oz tent with 60 mph plus winds.
