    Default Moab Spring 2013



    Guess I'll get the thread started, I'm not much for long drawn out stories so I'll just give you the high level tour and post up some pics.
    I got there on Sunday as did Rob and Chris, ColoJeeper (Don) and JayMoto (Jay) came up the day before. We hooked up in the afternoon and went out to run Fins n' Things.
    Monday morning we ran Porcupine Rim about 7 miles in and then went and run Hells Revenge
    Tuesday was Poison Siider Mesa
    Wednesday we took the long drive down to Elephant Hill and that was well worth it.
    Thursday Don made his way back to Denver and Chris had a Check Engine light come on so Rob, Jay, and I ran various trails including Bartlett Overlook, Hidden Canyon, the little known but very fun Mashed Potato, Bartlett Canyon Wash, and Tusher Tunnel. All in all just over 34 miles of off road.

    It was another amazing Moab trip, already looking forward to next spring.

    Now for pictures...

    Porcupine Rim
    This obstacle didn't have a name but scared the hell out of me. Straight down the cliff on the drivers side.

    Famous last words from a GPS


    Really, the name of the road just ahead was "Short Cut", not sure where it was to, but must have been a short cut at some time.

    Nice Gary! I look forward to a fast enough speed to see the pics. I sat out Thurday but got the hot water heater in the trailer working so it wasn't a waste. The CEL is strange, it was coming on within 10 minutes of being reset. Today it only came on twice. I'm not going to worry about it, seems harmless right now.

    I should add that Barb and I are still in Moab. More after we get back.
