The unpaved portion of the program is called the “Moki Dugway” and it’s a section of dirt road switchbacks

The vistas from atop Moki Dugway are spectacular with views all the way south to Monument Valley.

At Natural Bridges National Monument a left on Highway 276 heads straight for the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and Lake Powell. The approach to Lake Powell is a very nice section of road that traverses some amazing geology, the road is so well made that it’s smooth as silk.

The near-term destination is Hall’s Crossing and the ferry across the Lake. There’s something just plain fun about a motorbike on a boat on a lake. The $10 ferry is a quick half hour ride across one of the wider sections of the still green water and skirts a small city of houseboat moorings. The ride offers views of the tree-less lakeside and many happily recreating boaters. The boat docks seamlessly and Highway 276 continues north alongside the triple snowcapped peaks of the Henry Mountains.

So, here’s to a motorbiking theme day of sand and surf and steaks and salmon.
