When I started going there in the '70s, the road to the Wedge was a real adventure even in a Jeep. There was a narrow arroyo, there were places where you could get bogged down in deep sand. If it rained you were in trouble. But probably in a move to head off any possible "roadless" designation that could have protected the area from ORV abuse, Emery County did a major grading and bridge-building job on the route, even putting up reflectors where you come down off high country near the highway. So I don't imagine you'd have much trouble getting back if it does rain, but drive carefully in case the surface is slick. Take along your cell phone in the unlikely event that you need to call a tow truck. ALSO, abide by the BLM rules about where you can and can't camp. The reason is that a fellow I know discovered a new type of cactus at the Wedge. It only emerges from the ground in the spring, and BLM has closed certain areas to protect this vulnerable and rare species. -- Joe
