hike & car camp - mt elliot & more - October 6, 2023
We plan to summit Mt Elliot (7,142 ft), the high point of the Book Cliffs region, near Price and Green River as well as some other peaks in the area. A Mt Elliot hike will be 16 miles RT with 2,842 ft gain with an SUV/ car. With Kathleen's UTV and maybe high clearance trucks, it can be shorter. We will explore some other peaks in the area. We will camp at the end of the road (no fee, no reservation required). The planned schedule is: Oct 6 Fri Road trip; Oct 7 Sat Mt Elliot (& more peaks such as Elliot Mesa if we have time); and Oct 8 Sun Short hike & Road trip. The plan may change depending on weather and conditions. This hike will be exploratory. Registration required. Partial participation is fine. WMC members only.
