My wife is the photographer; I am just the driver.  Her gallery also has other trips we have taken. 

 

We started this trip 2-29-20 at Dead Horse SP before entering the WRT on 3-1.  Best call was 2 nights at White Crack Point; tough to get reservations for camping, but well worth it.  

 

What she does not say is that we averaged 9 mph for 95+ miles and seldom got out of 2nd gear/low 4x4 with many 1st gear/low 4x4 crawls. 

 

2005 Tundra w/2016 FWC Hawk; numerous 'upgrades' but no lift.

Great trip report! I've been meaning to look into the WRT to plan an eventual trip.

 

Loved the photos, especially the one of Monument Basin. I emailed it to my wife at her work.

 

Thanks!

Nice report from a great trip and stellar photography as well. Thanks for sharing, it brought back some not so distant memories of our trip on the trail. Can't wait to get back.
