Real talk on White Rim.
We went Shafer switchbacks into classic White Rim viewpoints starting at 6:00 AM. Sun was strong in exposed stretches by late morning. Traction stayed good, but dust built up after each vehicle group.
Quick scores: overall=4, difficulty=5, views=4
Preparation is everything.
Quick notes:
- Bring the rain layer even if clear.
- Tape hot spots before they blister.
- Know the bail-out options.
- Trust the cairns.
