Moab May 10-12th

[Bwelker85]

Hey Front Range,

Looking to plan a Moab trip the weekend of May 11th, but could also do late April weather permitting. I’ve never been to Moab, not sure when it warms up.

Let me know who’s interested, would love to get a weekend on the books!

May is a good time for Moab temp wise. Unfortunately I no can do.

Interested - but will be curious as to temps - but by this chart - temps look nice:

I am interested in this well, will depend on my workload around that time.

Have fun! I'll be there the weekend of the 17th out by needles.

Jim's got a solid list.

I'm actually headed to Moab March 28 - 30th if anyone else will be out then. Staying at KOA in town, don't have 100% full plans done yet, but so far have Onion Creek planned. Been once years ago, went during July aka way too hot. We opted to head out as our first trip in 2024 so early to beat the heat of the season. Our main goal and desire is to kick off our 2024 family and off road camping season asap and also we are doing a re-visit of sites both in Moab and Colorado as a whole to spread ashes of our beloved and dearly missed Husky we lost at 3 years old last year to all the places she visited with us over the years.

Sand dunes is after this one! (Unsure when).

I was going to also be in Moab for cruise Moab solo, but the event sold out so darn fast. So definitely open to a trip honestly and if you all have any trails we could potentially scope out this next week, happy to add to the list!

Looks like your rig tipped over, maybe you can't go anymore.

Just got back from Moab with rich etc....in addition to some obligatory trails like fins and hells, I did add two more trails to list that I'd never run - flat iron mesa and steelbender. I think PS and elephant hill are still my favorites, but steelbender was cool and flat iron is scenic with a few challenge-y spots.

Would this include camping somewhere as a group? Or just "every man for himself?"

I would vote for group camping. I'm looking about 75% likely for this one at the moment. I've been to Moab twice but never actually done any of the main trails so I would love to cross a few of these off the list!

My favorite camp site in Moab area is up Onion Creek. There's a pull off to the right very close to the end of the trail. There's a huge tree (I think cottonwood) and it's right by the creek. It was so peaceful when I was there camping alone. I don't think it would fit more than 3 rigs with ground tents, comfortably.

I'm still very interested. If this is on, let's talk about what trails. Dome Plateau anyone?

I put in my time off request so I'm planning on joining this one. Should we put it on the calendar and start planning some camping spots and runs?
