Hello all! I'm planning a short trip for a few days to visit a buddy in Telluride and figured I'd get there via Moab since I've never actually spent any time there. Any helpful hints/tips/things to see/places to camp would be much appreciated! Who knows, maybe I'll see some of you along the way!
My approximate timeline:
Friend arrives from Jersey in Denver Thursday morning. Roll out. Camp in Moab Thursday night would be optimal because then we could explore in the morning while the weather is cool.
Friday explore Moab. We'll have at least one dog with us so take this in consideration for camping spots/exploration outside the van. I wouldn't mind doing some gentle wheeling....
Either camp in Moab again Friday night or head down to Telly. Can most likely crash at buddies place, but cool camping spots are welcome recommendations anyway.
Saturday/Sunday - Explore the area. No solid plans yet but we're down for just about anything. We might try to get some outdoor rock climbing in since we haven't done that in a while. Favorite mtn bike spots also welcome!
Monday - depends on whether friend can fly out of Telluride instead of Denver. If he does, I really want to drive/camp Imogene pass (I'm assuming in the Telluride -> Ouray direction). Pointers appreciated! This will be the first time we road trip with the van with the explicit purpose of seeing cool shit, not traveling to see family, so I'm super excited!! Let me know what you folks think!!
