    I'm interested, but more in the May area. I have some other guys planning an early May trip, as that's what works best for me. I'm hoping they don't change dates on me, but if so I may look at getting some people here together to go.

    Yes, very. Went there that time last year and it was awesome. My one requirement be that its not during EJS or Cruise Moab, cause I hate crowds and having to wait to get on a trail. But yeah, I've been wanting to get back there ever since I went last year.

    We go when nothing else is going on out there. I hate traffic jams on the trail!

    I'm in for BFE for sure, though not sure about Heldorado yet (mostly worried about that exit waterfall). Greenday is a sweet trail that has some really fun obstacles, and the play area is always fun. Heck, its a great place to camp too, if you can deal with no facilities.

    I've never ran the Poison Spider trio, so that would be cool to do one day too. I'd run Hells Revenge again, and maybe try some of the big obstacles this time. Whatever works for everyone though, I'm not picky.

    The trio is cool, I've been busted up on that twice!

    I won't go to Moab without running Hell's Revenge. Damn I just love that trail.

    A little Moab weather up date: It snowed all day yesterday and all last night. The snow during the day was a heavy wet snow and didn't accumulate as much. Woke up this morning to 4" - 6" of the white powdery stuff with a layer of wet snow at the bottom. I'm guessing a total of 8" - 9" dropped from the sky. The amazing part was that we had a weeks worth of "warm" (45*+) weather that melted all the snow from the previous months event. Now the cycle starts all over again.

    I'm looking to buy a snow blower... unfortunately no one in town sells them... or has EVER sold them. Street department is running out of sand and only doing the main roads. They had a medical emergency on I-70 last night and they couldn't get the ambulance to the scene. Hwy 191 was closed. MANY tractor/trailers jackknifed, cars slid off the road, etc, etc. (I have a scanner).

    Crazy weather for Moab. However, old timers talk about much more snow than we've gotten so far. Don't know if that's true or not but for over 20 years I haven't seen it snow this much or even close to it.

    We got a bit of snow in Fort Collins, but nothing much. Seems a system came up from Arizona, through Utah and into Colorado, but by the time it got here we didn't get much. I want more snow!

    Wow, Moab winter wonderland! Hopefully it will warm up a little bit by mid March.

    I might bring my boys too! I think they would have a blast. I guess it depends on how much trouble I want to get into!

    Wow that's crazy that there is that much snow out there. I wish we could take a long weekend or something to go.

    LWB can have issues on some trails in Moab, just due to the steep angles some of that is at.

    I'd love to just go see it in the snow, just pack our snowshoes and the dogs.

    Whoever goes, look forward to seeing pics.
