INFORMATION FOR EASTER 2009
Hi Everyone. Change, change, change. Easter plans have changed again, I guess. Will and Cameron Durrant went looking, and found a place they think would be okay - - - It is just one mile north on the dirt road at exit 149 on I-70. The road is called CR 1029 or the Four Corners Mine Road (on MapQuest) (South from the exit 149 is SR24 to Hanksville)
Maybe this area is not as great as Little Egypt, but it does have several pluses
It is closer to Motels (Only 10 miles from Green River)
It appears not to be as far to travel for everyone
It has sand, rocks to climb, dinosaur bones, plenty of room, trails for 4-wheelers (no signs telling you not to ride)
It is near Black Dragon Canyon (for rappelling?) and the San Rafael River (tubbing, kayaking, if there is enough water) , and within driving distance of Goblin Valley (25 miles) Temple Mountain (20 miles) Horseshoe Canyon (about 50 miles) Swasey’s Cabin & the Buckhorn draw road (45 miles)
As for Motels, we have them reserved at the Robber’s Roost Motel in Green River (325 W Main) Will had stopped and looked at the motel and said it was completely non-smoking. The rooms are small, but they only cost $45. I have them reserved for Joan, Clyde& Alice, Enid, plus my familly. If you would rather have a nicer motel (more expensive) the Roadway West Winds is nice, and the rates are $60 plus tax. Also available is the Best Western River Terrace, Super 8, Comfort Inn, Holiday Express, (they are all on the east side of Green River) Motel 6 is also on the east side, and there rates start at $45. So, if you want to change, please let me know - - you can make your own reservations and I can cancel.
Sorry about the change!!! - - - I hope I don't live long enough to have another turn (7 years) Love MaryDean
