    I don't think I want to run elephant hill again. Was fun to do last time but that is a long drive out to the trail and back.

    Rim would be awesome.

    I love elephant hill too. Totally worth the drive I though. Canyon lands is so cool.

    Just for shits... has anyone thought of doing a detour to Overland Expo? It's May 10th to the 13th, so it might be a bit of a stretch for people who are on vacation from work.

    i think having you cracking the whip on us on trifecta would be beneficial as you have an idea on the pace we need to keep..as you know i'd be out taking photos every 5 minutes and watching everyone go over the obstacles unless someone is telling me to get moving haha

    behind the rocks looks like it has some fun obstacles and some great and interesting views...but there are tons of trails that i would be happy doing while out there...

    hole in the rock being one that is the top of my list now! need some willing group members to make the journey though...i've seen people do that solo, but 60 miles off-road is a big risk if you ask me to go solo

    moab rim looks amazing, but as an IFS, and as a long and wide IFS, there are a few obstacles on that trail that have me second guess that trail...

    I'll be wanting to head back to trifecta again this year. Moab rim as well, probably elephant Hill this year, I need to finish Kane Creek.

    I'll gladly come with you again on Trifecta as well as Moab rim.

    I'm interested in hole in the rock as well. I'd like to do a loooong trail out there and it looks like white rim will be extremely limited due to the restrictions on the # of vehicles allowed. The history of the trail and the remote environment is also very fascinating.

    Moab rim is on my short list along with the trifecta and hells revenge since my trip got cut short last year and I wasn't able to run them.

    Kane Creek was a blast last year. I'd like to go back and do it again this year since the truck will be far better off than last year, but there's so much to see and so little time.

    ^^^ hell yeah! I am so ready to go on this trip! It's been a while since I took a vacation that had me preparing this far out, and it's been forever since I went on a trip that allowed me to spend so much time outside and doing something I love.

    i don't mind them as long as it's not a bunch of 6" bolders with no big shit to play on. I hate crap like that did steel bender last year and so could have take the short cut.

    For you guys considering Hole in the Rock, you should plan on a couple days for that trail. It's not that close to Moab to begin with. If you go down to Hall's Crossing to take the Ferry over and then run the trail it is easily a 2 day trail at that point. I've seen guys run it in and out on the same day, but they are hauling ass. You'd have to be at Hall's Crossing near Bullfrog super early in the morning to catch the first ferry and then cross your fingers that you don't have any problems on the trail that keep you from catching the evening ferry. Pretty risky as a day trip if you ask me.
