I am, with a friend (two vehicles), are going for a big Utah adventure. Let me know if anybody wants to join. The plan is:

That should be a fun trip, I wouldn't mind joining you but expect temps in the 105-115 range.

I was checking the average temperatures in Big Water, UT and it is showing 99 - 67 averages. We will have hopefully good A/C, lots of water and good health with us.

I'll be with my 6-years-old son. We will also have another vehicle (MB Gelandwagen).

If you can join us that will be great !
