Avoid the interstate: Utah is frikkin awesome!

Shoulda brought the SSV with its skidplates and BFG's, but fun in the Gator L too...






Michelin LTX MS2 highways are a joke in snow, alas...

Still rednecking it.... but this seems to be the street tires' limit



Didn't plan to end up here, kinda happened on a whim...so didn't even bring a shovel or check my spare.

Sucks having to play careful

Yes, Utah is one of the more beautiful flyover states. I go hang out around Moab about once a year.

What month is good? La Sal Mountain Loop was nice and snowy along but well plowed...yet the Gateway offshoot was snowed and iced up, seemed impassable on highway tires, at least with those sharp drops right along it

Depending on the year, but late March for the lower elevations is the start of the main season. That goes until about early to mid-June before it starts getting really hot. Higher elevations take longer to open up, but early June is probably a safe bet.

And then in the fall there is another go around with some beautiful weather.

Go drive through the Capital Reef NP area. Amazing year round and plenty of paved roads with little snow in the winter.

Will a stock 2019 Limited Max with the full 4WD tranny do ok if I put K02s on it?

I don’t think paved roads were the goal.

I don’t think paved roads were the goal.

There are countless miles of unpaved roads around there as well. Just take plenty of gas and don't get lost!
