La Sal Mountain Roads (Lackey Basin Area)
Road 54717, mapped Lackey Basin area route reference, La Sal, UT 84530
About this trail
The La Sal Mountains offer designated forest-road routes through woodland and open mountain terrain southeast of Moab. This guide retains the original regional entry, with its map reference on road 54717 near the Lackey Basin and Coyote Springs road network. Use the current Moab Ranger District motor vehicle map to choose routes open to your vehicle; the surrounding mountains also contain non-motorized and narrower-vehicle trails. Conditions range from gravel approaches to rougher tracks, and high elevations can have snow or mud well outside winter. The original photographs are historical community images of mountain driving and scenery, with no exact road sections identified. This is not a promise that every mountain road or photographed pull-off is open.

Before you go
- Check current access and vehicle rules with the operator before traveling.
- Carry the current Moab Ranger District motor vehicle use map and follow the vehicle class and season for each route. This area guide does not authorize every road, track or hiking trail in the La Sal Mountains
- Stay on designated roads and respect private boundaries, gates and signs. Do not drive into meadows or create a bypass around snow, mud or obstacles
- Use a capable high-clearance 4WD vehicle for rougher roads and meet Utah vehicle registration and permit requirements for your route
- Check the current Moab/Monticello road report and ranger advice before travel. La Sal Pass, Geyser Pass and other high roads have their own conditions; snow, mud and flooding can make a designated route impassable
- Carry water, recovery equipment and supplies for changing mountain weather. Camping and trailhead facilities have separate rules and seasons
- The three original photographs are historical source material. Exact road sections and present conditions are unconfirmed; vehicles visible in a meadow do not establish permission to leave a designated road
