Interesting enough, I was just coming on to ask if anyone had taken the road from Mesquite past Mt. Bangs, through Black Rock, and on back into the South side of St.George. I actually plan to go on all the way past Mt. Trumble and then down to Toroweep Overlook, but turning North goes back to St. George, and makes a possible day trip out of it. The mapping software says it's going to be around 100 miles to Toroweep from Mesquite, so I expect this will be overnight camping near Mt. Trumble if I go that way.
This sounds like the kind of trip that David Wright might have done, but I am looking for a heads up from anyone who has gone this way. There are some sections from Mesquite near Mt. Bangs that are listed as 20% uphill grade, and then some 10% downhills on the other side. I guess I'm just trying to get some idea of how tough this trail will be before I try to talk my wife into going. Similar to Wheeler Pass or Harris Summit?
Thanks for any advice or pics,
Travis
