-- No, I'm not mad, but it sure felt like we were surrounded by fire.
We took two days to get to Moab from the Sacramento area. I should have researched the path a bit, we took US 50. That is not a very trailer friendly highway unless you have a large gas tank. We had to make several extra stops just because the next gas station was beyond our comfort zone.
Trailer Tip #1 -- Make sure your brake controller is set appropriately. Our wasn't and our brakes on the vehicle got very over heated. Once I made the proper settings, no more problems. Our vehicle, has a sway control system and before getting the right settings it went off 3 or 4 times.
Once there, despite the heat, we had a great time. Spent two days in the Arches (early morning hikes), a day at a local spot, took a 2-hour drive to the Indian ruins at Hovenweep, spent some time downtown, and spent a day in Canyonlands which was a little cooler.
We did the whole drive home in one day, 17-hours and took I80. My older son took the reins for about half of the trip.
We stayed at a KOA in Ely, NV for one night on the way there and spent the week at Archview RV Campground. Similar pricing to a KOA. Clean, quiet place. Pool needed to be bigger though. In a few years, the young trees will provide some much needed shade.
I love taking photos and am really happy with some of them.
