Fall colors are changing, it is time to prepare for a great ride in your Brit Mobiles. We will meet at the Saratoga Springs Maverik Adventure Stop, 2023 Redwood Road ( Hwy 68) at 10:30 AM for a 11:00 AM Departure.
We will drive South on Hwy 68, West side of Utah Lake (Nice new paved road) until the Elberta Stop sign.
Make a left turn on to (Hwy 6) in front of the old historic Sinclair Station toward Goshen and Santaquin.
Drive straight through Santaquin go under the I-15 overpass, turn left at the signal light into the Maverik station, for a quick “Drain & top off” ( about 40 miles)
From the Maverik we will head North on frontage road (Hwy 198) toward Payson for about 4 miles and watch for a small sign “Lewis Feild” with a British flag on the left.
Turn left and drive .2 miles to our daughters “B-Spur Ranch” on the left where lunch will be provided. Plan to arrive a little after 12:00 Noon and depart about 1:00 PM
After lunch we will return to Hwy 198 North (left) to Payson and turn right on 800 South going East to Mt. Nebo Loop Road, turn right to Payson Canyon.
The first stop will be the second turn off road on the right to the Payson Lakes campground. At the entrance keep to the right to the restrooms for a short break. We have made arrangements for free park entry.
Return back to the main road, turn right, We will plan to make a few scenic view stops where parking space permits and eventually Exit the Nebo Loop onto Hwy 132 turning right to Nephi, stopping at the Chevron Station for Drain and Gain before heading home. We estimate being in Nephi about 3:00 PM. (The entire loop from Payson to Nephi is about 45 miles)
Returning north, I -15 Fwy is an option from Nephi for those in a hurry to get home. To avoid the Fwy we plan to drive West from the Chevron to Main Street, turn right, continueto old Highway 91 , turn left. Stay on the West side of the Frwy through Mona and back to Santaquin. From Santaquin, those going back to Salt Lake can retrace the route to Hwy 6 and drive west of Utah Lake through Elberta, Saratoga Springs and Redwood Road. Some may wish to take an optional route through Goshen canyon to Hwy 6, by turning left in Mona on 200 North. Utah County group can take the route from Santaquin to Payson, Spanish Fork, Springville and Provo East side of the Frwy.
It is fun all-day drive approximately 130 miles round trip with a great bunch of BMCU car geeks. If you have any questions contact either Steen or Arlene Sorensen 385-404-9553 or 385-404-9484
