I went there, I think, around 1987 at Christmas and being from Massachusetts, experiencing Christmas in the Southwest was a remarkable and memorable experience. I hope to go there again one day.

Low tires are easy to unseat and have a totally flat tire. Be sure you are prepared for this type of flat not easy to change. Jack is not on pavement.

What engine does your rv have? Transmission? My parents we did a rv trip in the 70,s love to travel I guess that’s why I grew up to be a truck driver 😊 enjoyed the journey 😊

Watched video after I did trip! Transit 350 medium length high top AWD stock , Moab up trail to the park. A little worried about clearance because Transits ground clearance is limited, there is a ledge at bottom of switchbacks that dragged trailer hitch a bit all plastic OK. I do think AWD helps as I had no wheelspin at all with stock tires. Dry conditions for me , have fun! An extended length van with all that overhang could drag in some spots.

@@ag4591 You may want to make sure this route is still open. Someone posted how they were making part of it into an Utah state park. If it’s open I would say a 4Runner is fine to get into Arches on it.

I believe this was the main access road when Arches first became a National Monument. The main entrance came later when the park was expanded into a National Park. Interestingly, Delicate Arch was not part of the original National Monument.

Thanks for the video! Are any of the readings listed from the LITERATURE or READERS sections needed to complete the lap book? Or is all the information in the lap book related only to the readings from the HISTORY section?
@RVHomeschool
@RVHomeschool 2 ай бұрын
@@samanthaandrews8964 Neither. I would argue they have some limited information in the lap book that you use when building the activity. So you wouldn’t need any other specific history spine (or literature book). Although it does pair nicely with what the kids are learning about with the history spines and the readers.

Colorado law says the uphill vehicle has the right of way. But in practice, we find the vehicle that has the shortest distance to a pull out is the one who pulls aside. On the trails I find people are the kindest drivers - being respectful to other drivers and helping when we have problems. It’s one of my favorite parts of jeeping - it brings out the best in people.

Stoney pass along the southwestern part of the Alpine Loop is the most unenjoyable section due to a maze of close trees (no views) and the very bumpy loose 4” rocks. I typically just do the upper half of the loop and back the same half.

@RVHomeschool
@RVHomeschool 3 ай бұрын
Technically Colorado has chain laws in effect from Labor Day to Memorial Day for ALL vehicles. It means you either need chains for your tires, or you need 4WD and snow tires with good tread. They were sick of bald tires on 2WD cars causing winter accidents. If you don't have either of those you can be ticketed. And if you have an accident the ticketing fee is higher (plus, you'll probably be considered at fault). Check CDOT for further details on chain laws.

That area looks amazing, wonder why the jeep is so angry :P. We are planning on heading out there in the next month or so, and these videos are temping me to bring my 4x4 instead of my Prius. I have about 1600 miles to drive so the Prius would be a lot cheaper to get out there.
