Description
If you have the proper sort of vehicle and the proper sort of nerves, you can drive the Shafer Trail at Canyonlands National Park.
While we stood and watched, two white SUVs met and passed each other ... on a curve, naturally ... and there seemed to be enough room for them both.
Still. I wouldn't do it!

That is really rugged country.
wow
Beautiful capture :)
Seems like an awful lot of work to get from here to nowhere. Still, the view must be fantastic from up yonder. Pretty awesome country.
Great shot. My husband would like to drive on that trail... me, I'd leave dents in the dash board and arm rest, where I would be holding on for dear life!
I know that I would ride my trail bike down this route, not too sure that I would ride up.... great capture Tara! Oh yeah! just looked at this again and I WOULD ride down this road
lol, I was on one of those with a small cargo trailer, came to a dead end, had to get out and hand turn the trailer around, then had to inch the durango around.. it was awesome.
Oh, I would love to drive that road...it is made for Jeeps! Great photo Tara!
Scary just to look at!
Not a road I'd want to take---great shot of it though!!
A super shot and a great zoom.
oh yes!, superb
Great shot. Of course, the REAL right sort of vehicle has four legs and eats hay!
beautiful !!
Looks scary to me. Superb capture Tara. God bless.
I think you need nerves of steel to chance this trail.... Nice shot. Aloha
impressive trail and shot beautiful lihting
Yikes! It's wonderful to look at from this POV, with those graceful tight switchbacks, but like you, I don't think I'd feel comfortable driving it!
YIKES !! I am glad you decided not to go that way :-) But it is a wonderful shot, Tara :-)
Exceptional capture of this interesting terrain....
Impressive place and shot. Brava, brava
One of your best images ever Hun! Just amazing!
This route shows how monumental the rocks are, if it is possible that two trailers together passing come by. But here I would rather be spectator! Excellent capture!!
Phew!!! Great capture
Marvelous capture !
Amazing photo!
Looks like a scary drive, but well worth the effort. Fantastic shot!
I dont want to go by that road (vertigo) :))
Wow! Beautiful shot! I love the vertical sweep, horizontal bands, and diagonal zigzags. With the right kind of vehicle and a well trusted, experienced driver (not me for this kind of terrain) I might go up it, but I'm afraid my stomach would stay behind.
A great vertical landscape with outstanding detail & texture variations. I WOULD like to take that road, but very slowly & cautiously...
