Baker Ranch Road

Baker Ranch Road easily transports you 26 miles into Utah's remote backcountry, where the spires, cliffs, and mountain views will have you saying, "Wow" around every corner—the gravel washboard road winds through several canyons on tight corners and along cliff edges. You will drive for miles across prairies rimmed with towering cliff walls and have abundant choices of private primitive camping. The numerous short offshoots offer semi-secluded camping for a couple of vehicles with tents. The views at every campsite are amazing. The trail connects in the south with the Cathedral Valley Loop trail and numerous other trails with days' worth of scenery to be wowed by. Your vehicle must be very dependable and durable for offroad travel. In dry conditions, the entire route is passable in 2WD. There are no washouts or deep ruts unless driving in the mud, which makes it nearly impassable. Overprepare for the desert with extra fuel, water, and a good working spare tire.
