Natural Bridges National Monument

This National Monument is about 42 miles west of Blanding Utah. We made two trips from Blanding, one day across hwy 95 and down 261, Then the reverse trip another day.  There is so much more to see on that loop from Blanding it takes several days and that’s staying on the pavement. The jeep roads are unlimited. It seems, the longer you stay  in one area, the more you find to explore. Locals give you tips, other rver’s blogs can guide you as well. We spent two nights in Blanding and the rest of our week was spent just outside the historic town of Bluff, UT.  There are many BLM camping areas along 95 including Butler Wash and Comb Wash.  Comb Wash  is a 4×4 road that runs all they way to Bluff. (connecting Highway 95 to 191) The boondock camping is off 95 to the north.  There are ruins, petroglyphs and beautiful cliffs and colors on the mesas all along this road to Natural Bridges Monument.
