Spring Creek Canyon Hike

Watch the video to the end. The best part of the video is in the second half.

Boondocking in our RV
In San Diego, We woke up at 2 Am and our RV was already packed and ready to go.  We loaded, “Pepe, the Prius” on to our tow dolly and departed at 3 Am.  Driving at night through Southern California really makes the expedition start off on the right note.  No stress and having that feeling of, “change” since we typically are not driving around at 3 Am.  

Long before our journey I researched and plotted our course and knew exactly where we would be heading the first day.  We arrived just outside of Leeds, Utah in the morning and although my research was sound, we still unloaded the car from the tow dolly, so we could drive up the narrow roads before driving our RV with a loaded tow dolly up some sketchy roads we only saw on the internet.  

We drove up the road past sites 1,2,3 & 4 and finally found that site 5 was unoccupied.  Not only that, it was pretty level.  We drove back and I drove the RV up to the site, as Melissa followed in the Prius.  

We found this incredible place by using the Campendium App.  It’s an amazing resource.  

Site #5 was perfect.  If we wanted to, we could back the RV into a nicer area overlooking the cliffs, however, we knew we would only be there one night, so we just parked in the pull-through. 

Within minutes, we were already out and hiking around the area to see what was around.

I guess I’ll just steal my review from what I posted on AllTrails. 

“Just did this hike today, and it was amazing. The first half of the hike was in the sun and not as pretty as the second half. We completely love slot canyons and the amazing colors and geological formations that the second half had to share. . The natural spring water cooled us off during the first half of the hike. This hike is on BLM land, which is perfect for Boondocking (staying overnight for free) We stayed at the Red Ledge RV Park Campground which is about five minutes’ drive away.”

Watch the video above to see the entire hike and our amazing boondocking spot.
