At the top of the Moki Dugway driving up, take the dirt road to the left out to Muley Point. You get a view with the San Juan River Goosenecks below you and Monument Valley in the background. It's about 5 miles out on a partly washboard road. I've done it in a car and is definitely worth the time.

Another great video , the drive looked scary, but views stunning

Excellent video. I had to share to my FB. A riding brother took me downhill here in our HD baggers. the ride was exhilarating.

Awesome, Aussie here, I drove this in 2007 in a crown vic, what a great drive :):):), would love to see a doco on its construction :)

I drove this both ways for a week. The hiking on Cedar Mesa is incredible!
-
Very well made video. Thanks!

Drove up Moki in my 31’ RV Pulled over close to edge to let a big rig with flatbed trailer go by As he passed by slowly he said Thank you

The views from the top are amazing. The road itself is not that dangerous as some might describe it. It is not that steep and reasonably wide, just take it easy and you are gonna be fine.

Just went down this a few days ago by accident. Going from Natural Bridges NM to Monument Valley it was the direct route. Even with the initial warning sign I had no idea what was coming. Cresting the edge of the mesa and seeing nothing but 1200 foot cliffs and a gravel road was a shock and intense. My wife loved the views. I just focused on the road, about 7mph the whole way down. Glad I did it, but no hurry to do it again.

Drove up and down Moki Dugway in 2015, outstanding drive!
-
We just made the drive down on this road. We are doing the Mighty Five. We had no idea the road even existed. It was a surprise. And , it was a bit scary!

I ran into this the other night on my way to Tuscon, I came from price and just plugged it into maps and away I went, came to the end of the payment and on to dirt road at a 12-15% decline, had me crapping a little. When I got to the bottom, it was a bit of a relief. Lol

Thank you for posting this, it’s so nice to see when you’re not the one doing the driving, I first drove it more than 15 years ago and it was way more rough and narrow, then about 5 years later and there were improvements but now it’s a decent dirt road still requiring slow speed and full driving attention, it’s remarkable it looks so good after this winters storms.

I just became acquainted with what you do and I thank you for this. every year I set out on a road trip from California and I head east avoiding the interstates the majority of the time and not knowing where I’m going or what I will be seeing, taking about 4 to 6 weeks to get it completed and I am going to make this location part of my journey this year thank you so much for sharing this

I drove it about a year and a half ago. It was a pleasant surprise. Once on top, the drive to Hanksville was very scenic too.
-
I just hit the Dugway several days ago, going up: pavement suddenly ended and we chickened out. Apple Maps sent us that way; and Siri got annoyed when we turned around! We went the long way around. Thanks for the video; I’ll try it next time!
-
As a little kid in the 1950's I was scared to death on our regular trips up and down, mostly at night.
-
It is a beautiful drive up or down. Nothing to be scared of. Just a twisting winding road with some fairly steep gradient to it. As long as you keep your vehicle on the road, everything is just fine.

Wow, Wow and more Wow!!!
