I agree with Phillip Gunlock overflow. Sadly didn't do it this year.

@xjblue , looks like we need some more clues to keep this moving.
First clue: (I'll post a second soon if this doesn't get it going again)
When we stopped there some folks, a friendly couple who live there in a small house through the summer and ranch the place with a son, showed us the fixed up old bunk house next to their place and pointed out what direction the old ranch house used to stand. Remains of a chimney are all that apparently remain according to the man. The Hay shed was pretty much unchanged. They rattled off famous outlaws including Posey and the Wild Bunch who used the place. They encouraged us to enjoy the view to the south toward Monument Valley out from the bunkhouse porch.
You might pass a view like this on your way to or from there.

I thought of the Scorup Cabin, but I thought it was surrounded by pine trees, so I don't think that's right. The last photo looks like Dark Canyon though.
UN-Educated guessing: to enjoy the view south, toward MV I was thinking it would be somewhere on Cedar Mesa (I'm not familiar with this area at all)??? But with the pine tree in upper left I would have to say more up around the Cottonwood Wash area west of Blanding???
Narrowing it down.
Scott P has proper ID on the clue, think higher elevation than Cottonwood - you could get there from Cottonwood...
Is it the Ute Cabin? If so, it looks different than it used to.
Nope, If the Ute Cabin on the map by the Kigalia ranger station? doubt you can see Monument Valley from there given the trees, the Bears Ears, etc, but you are still heading in the right direction, getting warm.
Is it The Hideout?
@Scott P Yes that's it!Quote:

Yes, that's it.
Death Valley?
@Felicia you are in the right state. but it's not death valley. look further south.
That's Glamis.
