Greetings from South Central Utah

She's now cleaned, waxed and ready to roll for another season of weekend adventures in southern Utah. Walbernize worked well on shining her up and getting rid of last year's sagebrush scratches. Now, the only question is where to go first: Fish Lake, Fremont Indian SP, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef? Maybe start at the lower elevations at first....Click image for larger version

Greetings from South Central Utah

Welcome to the site, we're glad to have you with us.

We vacationed in Brian Head last April and ventured out daily to Zion, Bryce Canyon, Escalante, and Kodachrome Basin.

The only thing I missed was mountain biking at Red Rock, but that's on next year's "To Ride" list.

Wow. That's a difficult list to pick just one! I might add Dead Horse Point, Snow Canyon, Grand Staircase, Boulder Mountain, Cedar Breaks...

Go buy Edward Abbey's 'Desert Solitaire' and go dry camping off Scenic Byway 12, east of Escalante. Go hike and pretend to lose yourself and get a sun burn. And then give thanks for your beautiful Airstream.

Greetings from South Central Utah

Thanks, folks - great comments. I've plans to go across Scenic Hwy 12 in early June with stops at Singletree (Boulder Mtn), near Escalante, and Ruby's (Bryce). Other than Peekaboo Loop, need to plan the day hikes, so thanks for the book suggestion.

Washed by hand with mild dish soap (using a hand mitt), then applied the Walbernize - cleaned up very nicely, shining like new!

Hello Utah Man,
You are so fortunate to live in the beautiful state of Utah! We just arrived home tonight after 3 months in the south west including 2 plus weeks in southern Utah. We cannot wait to return to Snow Canyon, Zion NP, Bryce NP, Kodachrome SP, Red Canyon and Escalante! Amazing country...."Utah Rocks" and landscapes are simply magnificent! Anywhere you travel you are going to have a wonderful adventure.
Safe travels in your beautiful Airstream,
FCloud9

Utah Man,

On Boulder Mountain you might also want to think about Pleasant Creak Campgound. It is higher in elevation at 8,700 feet. When I was there last Labor day there were only two other campers. Very nice. Here is a pic.

Zion was not yet crowded during our stay and we lucked out choosing Kodachrome SP to camp during our time at Bryce NP and Escalante. Kodachrome was very quiet and peaceful.

All the Walbernize products say do not use on clear coat finishes? My understanding is Airstreams have a clear coat finish.

Walbernize one-step RV Super Seal, recommended by and purchased from Intermountain AS in SLC. I applied it using a spray bottle like shown on the YouTube video by Colonial AS. AS dealers don't seem to have concerns.
