Sounds good

[thissignupisbullshit]

My friends run the snow plows that keep this road open in the winter. My hat is off to them. They have some pretty good stories to tell. I wish they would shoot a video and post it. Would be something to see. Thanks halfbreed for posting this one.

[halfbreed1ac]

Yeah I've heard stories of the snow but never experienced it. I would like to see a snow video.

on my way up the moki this weekend...exploring dark canyon....I have been most everywhere one can go in the west/southwest...muley point and surrounding is my fave...feels like your on top of the world, a great attitude adjustment....interesting post, the creed is painful but the video of the ride is cool:-)

[halfbreed1ac]

The creed wasn't my choice. The original music was cool but I got pinned for copyright infringement. So I had to change it.

This road deserves every homage it can get (and your video definitely gets the blood flowing :). I drove down this road on a fully loaded motorcycle and crawled down while video taping it. Speaking of which, I'm you don't mind I'm going to steal the "Higher" idea from you.

[halfbreed1ac]

No prob bro. I originally had a nice medley with some superman and old school trucker tunes, but I got hit with copyright infringement thus the "higher" but it works.

I thought at first you were bobtailing, but then I saw you were draggin a wagon. How long was the trailer? I gotta say you handled that thing like you knew every inch of that hill.

I liked the complete stop @ 3:00. After all that 4 wheeler was 20 feet away from the edge, wouldn't want them to panic or anything. Would've done the same, loldrivers.

@poncewattle I just read your comment and it feels like you're telling my own experience of mokee dugway. Same drive toward the wall not knowing that i was going to climb it. I left the car in the parking at the bottom and started up on foot telling myself (i'm not driving up that thing in my living days) until i saw that old toyota going up and driving by me. I went back down, made a payer and drove up the scariest 3 miles of my life!!!!!!

hell ya man we have been drivin that road every week for 12 years the narrows right in the middle are the best pullin a 57' spread axle drop deck comin up and the tires go spinnin off the side haha but that little trruck your drivin probably has a better turning radius than my old W900 haha

looks like Gran Canaria 1984 :)

My grandpa rolled his truck off that road a long time ago, survived to tell the tale. I've heard (and I don't know since I never get the time to go there) that you can still see his wrecked truck there? That'd be cool and scary to see! Good ol San juan county!

One of the best roads in the USA . Done it many times and every time seems better!! check out goose neck canyon at the bottom of the dugway! awesome also

best youtube vidie of the decade

[poncewattle]

Wow. I drove up that in a rental car back in the late 80s. Had no idea it was coming. We were just driving along through Monument Valley and the road kept getting closer and closer to this huge wall. As we got closer we saw something shiny half way up it and then realize HOLY HELL WE ARE GOING UP THAT WALL.

Thanks for the vid. Gotta get out that way again sometime.
