I can't believe she didn't jump on that idea.

What are the must do trails in Moab without getting too extreme?

A few hundred different ones:p

The classic must do’s are
Hells revenge
Poison spider
Moab Rim (little harder but well within your capabilities)

None of the trails are like what your used to. For instance, one of my top favs is Pritchett Canyon, rated as one most difficult trails in the area, if not most difficult. For you a very pleasurable and beautiful trail to run IF your willing to pull up as far as you can easily go in 2, maybe 3 spots and pull cable, winch up and be on your way undamaged and having fun. It’s a beautiful place and the pleasure of being there is more than enough.

Those of you going for the 1st time think of an image, obstical or trail that you want to see. I will do my very best to get you there. The 1st time I went I wanted to see the golden crack and the folks I was with made it happen, and I like to pass that favor on;D

Just don’t follow my line unless you want body damage! Lol

I spent today googling the same exact thing. I want to find the balance between scenery and work the bronco. I don’t want to come home and regret not trying a certain obstacle, but also don’t want to beat the heck out of it for a solid week. My list had Mickeys hot tub and the golden crack for sure.

I'll add:

Fins and Things - relatively easy but very fun trail, a good introduction to Moab "slick rock"
Metal Masher - a more challenging and fun trial
Top of the World - incredible view at the top with a classic poser pic at the edge

A good 1 day trail combo is Fins and Things in the morning and Hell's Revenge in the afternoon. You've got to do Hell's Gate!!

We’ll be sure to get you to the crack. Via rusty nail it’s just around the corner from No Left Turn:eek:

lol, oh really... It seems in video/pics to not be "too" bad

Guess you got to have the right set up as well right :)

Nice!

Me too!


Well sort of..... just made a weekend Easter trip. Took the bronco to do some running around. Just need to go through spares, tools, supplies and pack wheel bearings on the trailer, it has enough miles doing that will keep my ocd happy.

Now you've gone and done it! Shouldn't have posted the forecast. Guess I better look into a snorkel and winter clothing;D
