Howdy. I'm planning a week long trip along the Paiute. My question is regarding fuel stops, specically on the north end.

Salina Utah
I see there are gas stations in Salina, but according to the Nat Geo map, ATV's are not allowed to drive to any of them. Can ATV's drive to the Carls Jr, Subway, Burger King, etc., where the gas is?

Koosharem
I don't see that there is fuel here. Am I missing something obvious?

Aurora
I don't see fuel here. Can someone confirm?

Fillmore
There is fuel here for ATV's. Is this correct?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

 

I'm pretty sure that if the map shows gas in a town that you can get to it. We got gas in Marysvale and Junction on the south side of the trail. The map did show gas being available in all the towns you mentioned. Salina and Aurora are very close together too if one doesn't have gas. When you going out? We're going to arrive late on August 28th and ride M, Tu, W, Th, and F. before heading home. Probably going to connect with Specta the first 3 days. We had a great time with him in 2013 and are going to bring our machines this time. (38 hour drive each way)

 

And I thought my 13-14 hour to and from Paiute was bad (I checked and it would be same going to Hatfield/McCoy, but I'd still like to go someday). The drive west of Denver was certainly scenic though you still had to keep your wits about you.

Couldn't tell you about where to get gas in that part, stayed in Richfield.

 

WOW! I'm with John. My 16 hour drive is nothing compared to that. Dates are not set yet for our trip, but I'll share our trail route with you when I'm finished if you're interested. We're filling in the gaps that missed in 2014. I'm planning for 5 days, 4 nights camping out on the trails.

 

We're thinking of heading down to the Bryce Canyon area and maybe camping overnight there. I can't do a ton of camping. Back isn't into it.

 

I just found on the ATVUtah forum that there is gas in these cities; Monroe, Elsinore, Marysvale, Junction, Koosharem, Richfield, Salina, Jospeh, Beaver and Fillmore.

In Koosherman, it's the Grass Valley Mercantile, which is closed on Sunday's. I'll update this post so we can reference it later after I figure out the other gas options.

 

Isn't there also gas at the Big Rock Candy Mountain resort? Home - Big Rock Candy Mountain Resort | Big Rock Candy Mountain Resort

 

I always wanted to ride that trail ! never could find anyone to go w/ me !

 

Not sure.

 

Rough draft route created. 5 days / roughly 500 miles. After I return from Moab in a few weeks will tidy up the routes.
