Budget-friendly The Wave approach.
We went Wire Pass route with waypoint checks at major slickrock turns starting at 5:10 AM. Cold start turned into warm sun by mid-morning. Sand sections were soft but easy to follow with track lines.
Quick scores: overall=4, difficulty=4, views=4
Short version: Poles help more than you think.
10/10 would recommend.
