We Towed The Trailer Down The Wrong Road!

We got into a tough spot with our car and cargo trailer/camper and did a little damage trying to get out. We went down a "Public Access" road, not aware that it had fallen into disuse due to the road being washed out and we ended up having to back the trailer all the way out!!! But the area, "9 Mile Canyon", was absolutely beautiful with it's plentiful Native American rock art and spectacular scenery. We also inspect some abandoned cabins and ranch buildings with left over equipment.

OMGosh, this is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you so much for sharing. I could easily spend weeks there exploring, well at least as long as is legally permitted. 😁 Sorry about your Utah pinstripping. I drive a truck with a truck camper on it. Currently I'm staying at a family member's property to do repairs on the camper and to repaint the truck. Due to the remote places I prefer, the truck will be painted in white bedliner paint. Did the bed in black bedliner paint already. Almost finished sanding down the truck and prepping it for painting. The camper paint is holding up well but when its time comes for new paint, I'll use the white bedliner on it too. Need something tough to stand up to adventurous areas. All the best to you both. 💞🐶😽😻💞

One time I was out exploring forest service roads and went down one that looked interesting. Steep hill one side, steep 200 foot slope on the other, one lane. 10 % grade+. Went for it and about a mile down it around a bend was a washout. Had to back out the entire way. Good thing it was just a 85 Ford Ranger. Cool find.

As a suggestion, get a come-along or power winch. You never know when you could get stuck. Mud, sugar sand, tire over a big rock. Best thing though is to not take the road when your sixth sense kicks in. Don't have a sixth sense? Yes you do, her name is Linda, she's riding in THE seat next to you

You're right about my 6th sense and I always do what she says. There's been many times when she has said, "Ahhh... I don't think so" and she's usually right.

[@abebarker]

Hello from just over the mountains. I'm over here in Manti city in Sanpete county in Utah. I spent the weekend up on skyline drive where the weather is much nicer than down in the valley. They usually call the canyons a mile name based upon how far it is from the city that is the county seat. So nine mile canyon is 9 miles from Price city, which is the county seat. On the other side of the mountain range here we have a six mile canyon, a nine mile reservoir, and a twelve mile canyon all based upon the distance from the county seat, Manti. Have fun in Utah.

[@richarddaugherty8583]

Nice! Thanks for this! I'll have to add this to my list of places to visit. Reminds me a bit of a 4 day backpacking trip I did on the Escalante River, south and east of where you shot this. We started with a 10 mile hike down Harris Wash till we met the river. Going down the river canyon we kept crossing and recrossing the river, sometimes hiking down the river-course until the trail re-appeared. I remember seeing the caches up on the canon walls. Looked like enclosures of stacked rocks, not in a pile like the one you saw. I suspect the canyon floor is much lower now than it was thousands of years ago. You'd have a pretty good climb to get to one of the caches today, if you even could. I'd love to see the inside. I have fond memories of that trip. Cheers!

[@gonagain]

In some of the more remote caches they have found clay jars filled with grain. I don't know for sure that it was a grainary, but it matches others I've seen in the area.

Only had raise & lower controls on the blade and ripper, tilt and slew (angle offsets) were set up manually, 🤣🤣🤣. But we dug dams and made roads with it, did its job albeit slowly, but better than doing it by hand 🤣🤣🤣. On the back shifts, if my work was up to date, I'd head down and help out dozer drivers at the coal plant if needed, driving D11 Cats. Now THAT my friend was a real hoot! Until another driver scared the crap out over me by pushing coal up behind me and pushed me into the receiving hopper and almost covered me in coal, 🤣🤣🤣. Took me a while to work out how to escape 🤣🤣🤣. Could never achieve payback though.

Hello Paula, they did dig down for better insulation. May I add something? In Washington state, the indians of Chief Moses' band dug down about 3 feet for their tule (cattail stalk) roofed huts to get below the frost line and stay warmer in the winter. These SW granaries were built high and hard to get to so that an enemy would have a difficult time stealing from them.

@@gonagain isn't that interesting? how did they know to dig deeper to remain cooler/warmer? WOW! I am amazed with the water distribution at Machu Picchu, built by the Incas in 15th century yet today we have many Native Americans without water.. how is this possible?

[@gregorypeterman6216]

I had a 69 Impala that had scratches like that once, reminds me of home.

[@gonagain]

Most of it buffed out and it's not really noticeable anymore. Sure looked bad at that time though.

[@marketshare5273]

Wow that was pretty incredible thanks for sharing Utah is one of the few states I haven’t spent much time in and just pretty much drove through. 👊👍😎

[@gonagain]

Oh man, Utah is a place we keep returning to because there is so much beauty to take in, but if you just drove the freeways you would never know it existed. You'd like it Bird Man.

[@kristigail]

Just discovered you two, as you turned up on my KZbin feed. Loving your videos! Howdy from Fort Worth! 🤠

[@gonagain]

Thanks for tuning in Kristi! We're in Montana, the other Texas.

[@rogermowery3048]

Lol, I love the adventure! I've done this myself. No machete for me though. 20 VDC hedge trimmer and sawsall! It seems like the first thing I always did to my new trucks was scratch them up! hahaha Happy Trails guys! Best Regards, Roger

[@gonagain]

I thought about how nice a battery sawzall would be while I was hacking away.

Welcome to Utah, heat wave going on here. My guess is a mine shaft of some sort? Gotta be a reason for the concrete.

[@gonagain]

Could be because a lot of mining took place in that canyon.

[@moretoexplore6736]

Absolutely beautiful place, I can't wait to visit. Thank you for sharing it, for the directions how to get there.

[@ericsvalland4417]

Anyone notice the rock formation that looks like a siting dog above while Linda is walking away in the opening?

[@450rhino1]

Don't worry so much ! The brush will grow back . And this is another reason I don't travel the old Interstates . Love the canyon graffiti . This is wear TAGGING was born . Now back to your rig . This is why I don't let Kathy drive . It would be Thelma and Louise all over again ! Well , you two . Behave yourselves or it's back into time out for y'all ! Take care . Your good friend Vinny in good old Fla.
