This drive was one that I will never forget. If I could have turned aroud, I would have. Still, now that I did it without damage, I am glad I did it. For someone from the east it was an eye opener.

Canyonlands N.P. also has some pure rock 4x4 trails, but I think you would want a shorter wheelbase Jeep or equivalent. When we hiked part of one, there were auto bits and pieces all over the trail. And lots of boulder scrapes. Sort of reminded me of a difficult kayak/canoe route.
IIRC nearby Moab, UT is famous for it's 4x4 and X-country bike routes. I think they also had a nice brew pub and coffee shops .
