    Default Moab trip spring break 2017



    Just got back last night from a great Moab trip
    We left at 6:00am and got to top of the world by 11:30
    Great way to start the trip
    Went to elephant hill in the needles district of canyonlands
    We had a permit to camp which made this trail really cool since it was a destination, not just a trail
    Hiked the joint trail and set up camp. The night was overcast so not as many stars as I had hoped for.
    Came into town for fuel then back to Kane creek. Pure luck we ran this down stream as hamburger hill was a beast, not sure we would have made it going up steam. TD had this a 5 trail, but going up steam I would rate a ,6. I've never done a 6 though.
    Then fins and Hell's always fun, there was a light rain so these trails were prefect .
    Then PSM followed by golden bar
    Gold bar had the hardest obstical.i wasn't sure we would make it back up-to-date so I aired down to 11psi just for the water fall, then back up to 15psi. https://imgur.com/gallery/Vhu9g. https://imgur.com/gallery/Vhu9g
    Hope these links work
