BURR TRAIL: THE BEST motorcycle adventure in UTAH. BOULDER to BULLFROG to CAPITOL REEF & GLEN CANYON
ฝัง

- Part asphalt, part dirt, the Burr Trail extends from Boulder in Utah to Bullfrog on Lake Powell. Meet the new friends I met on the way and travel through the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Capitol Reef National Park, and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area with me.
"This is the most God-forsaken and wild looking country that was ever traveled“ stated Josephine Catherine Chatterly Wood in 1882 about the Burr Trail. Roughly 140 years later, I was about to follow her footsteps. Here is how to travel the Burr Trail right and not to miss out on the best sights:
Stay a night in Boulder at the B&B Annie's Place and enjoy the views on the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. But Annie is not present. Instead Jared will be your host. Enjoy the best breakfast you had all day - and soak up all his information about the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, Boulder and the Burr Trail
Hit the road early in the morning and get petrol in Boulder downtown. There are no gas stations before Lake Powell.
Ride the first section of the Burr Trail through the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument that takes you through the Gulch and Long Canyon
Stop at the singing canyon, hike into the beautiful slot canyon with its high rock walls ... and sing! The echo is amazing!
Section 2 of the Burr Trail takes you through Capitol Reef National Park. The asphalt ends here and a good dirt road starts
The best part of Burr Trail: The Burr Trail switchbacks! Drive cautious to not fall down the cliffs!
Section 3 of the Burr Trail takes you along Waterpocket Fold - with amazing views and a gravel road like an Autobahn
Drive through the Bullfrog Creek Crossing. This part of the Trail can be flooded and impassable if Lake Powells waters are high
Arrive in Bullfrog and hope that there will be a ferry to Halls Crossing.
Good Luck! ;)

🙌👏👌✌🖖🤙👍👋🙂🌹
It really is! You are lucky to live in such an amazing country!!
Wow klasse Episode.
Wahnsinns Landschaften und wieder mal super gefilmt.
Weiter so. Einziger Wermutstropfen: Jetzt ist wieder so lang bis nächsten Donnerstag.
Morgen hab ich Probefahrt mit T 700.... bin gespannt ob ich dir dann zustimme.
Da bin ich aber auch sehr gespannt! Sag gerne morgen (und spätestens nächsten Donnerstag) Bescheid ob dir die Tenere auch gefällt. Du musst sie allerdings auch im Gelände Probe fahren - ich war ja nach der ersten Fahrt bei Touratech auf fast nur asphalt gar nicht so begeistert…
This is awesome! Inspiring.
Great photography
Awesome as usual. Thanks for your fine work!
Very nice video Lea , greetings from Romania!
Thank you! I hope that I can visit Romania too again at one point - it was actually on my list for this summer but then plans changed all of a sudden
Excellent presentation. I've been most of these areas but my Harley is a bit too heavy for that Burr trek to bullfrog. I may still try it given what I've seen of the road from your video. Thank you for visiting our part of the world! Never apologize for singing from your heart, it's all good. Your companion has an excellent voice and John Denver would be proud! I am from Southern AZ so if you make it here I have lots of information should you want to reach out! Keep up the great work!
من أجمل الرحلات رحلاتك شكراً لك
What a awesome adventure very cool
Thanks for the video. I live in the US and I have been to many places out west, just not the places you are going. Thanks for sharing and I will need to make another trip to Utah!
Yes there are so many things that I still want to see in Utah - I couldn’t even do 10 percent of what I wanted to see!
great voice and awesome video. Thank you and be safe
Another great video. Keep them coming.
Good to see what Utah looks like from here in Ohio. I read and enjoyed your book also.
🎵Country roads... Take me home... To the place... I belonggg 🎵🎵😊
Burr ttail thrilled me,im enjoying to view your journey in youtube.
This is a great video! I live in Utah and this ride is on my bucket list. Thank you so much!
Holy cow. Stunning
So beautiful! Thank you for sharing your amazing videos, trip, and you have more information about each place than those of us that have live here in the States. I love that you were singing John Denver "Country Roads". He is my all time favorite singer, his songs kept me company and kept my heart happy on many long trips. Stay safe out there. God bless and keep you safe.
Bonjour...formidable voyage , des vidéos à couper le souffle. Merci à toi .belle route .😉
my backyard.. the southwest USA is absolutely gorgeous. great vid..
Your videos are very nicely done great narration best I've seen for a while
Very nice video like it 👍
Thank you!
Wow. Just wow
Great vid and beautiful scenery!
I have no words to describe how stunning the scenery was on the Burr trail, the scale simply blows your mind, absolutely loved it...
I have to admit it still blows my mind too. And the weird thing is that it’s even more majestic in real life. I really love the videos of the landscape I took for this episode, but still they can’t do the real dimensions of these canyons any justice…
excellent video quality and content... well done.
It's a very beautiful place without crowds. Much more to see. Glad you are enjoying our country. Really good vid and music. Not easy, I know. See you on the road. Stay safe where ever you are.
See you on the road! You really live in a beautiful place!
Thanks for the video. Looks fun.
One of the lit videos. Awesome!
Spectacular!
spectacular! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Interesting landscape with all eroding rocks and the road that finds the best way around them.
Yes, such a cool road!
Beautiful place, thankyou!
Wow! Absolutely beautiful! I think this was one of your best. I've never heard of the Burr Trail before. One thing I was certain of when the day started was that, I would not be hearing Lea "John Denver" Rieck singing in the "Singing Canyon." Thanks Lea, this was very entertaining! 😎
You were lucky though that not only I was singing 😂
I have to admit though that this is one of my favorite episodes too. It’s very funny though, we didn’t plan to ride the burr trail in the beginning and just decided to do so when we saw it in Boulder that evening. And turned to be out such an amazing day.
Jared , what a guy , cowboy , cook , fun and entertaining. And Buddy Leroy !
Was the accommodations as good.
I forgot to take any videos of the rooms - but they were super comfortable and just newly renovated. Can’t recommend this place enough. And: you can as well ask Jared to cook you a dinner if you tell him in advance - his cooking skills are amazing!!!
Sounds great , how far is his place from Burr trail?
Annie’s place is literally where the burr trail starts. It’s just a bit outside of Boulder and everything is in a good distance to reach (but own vehicle is definitely a must!). I hope you can do your own trip to the Burr trail at one point, Utah is just amazing!
Seriously, Lea, i can't get enough of these views (and roads and breakfasts and singings and lakes and motorcycle travel videos), too! So: can't wait the next yummy slice of America and thank you!!
But: no swimming in lake Powell! I think that would have been a good end of the episode too. 😂
It's been a LONG week...waiting for this adventure/fun/education...stay safe !! ( yes..travel partner...super voice )
Thank you so much! Will forward your compliment!
Although I’ve lived my whole life in the eastern US, I have made multiple trips to the all of the states you’ve shown so far. Yet it has been an international visitor who has shown me several sites I’ve never seen. Thank you for that and for doing it so well.
Thank you for this big compliment. But I guess it’s as well a compliment to your own country. I have been in the USA quite a few times now, but the more often I visit, the more new places are on my bucket list. I have already 10 more places I really want to ride in Utah and Arizona… always a good reason to come back! It would probably take a lifetime of exploring to see everything that is worth to be seen.
Well said and so true, beautiful capture 👍🏽
Beautiful
Espectacular 👍
🙏🏻
I've ridden near Escalante, etc many times but never knew about the Burr Trail --- next ride for sure!
