    Ya Kane isn't slick rock, a dam fun trail! But the wash climb on the edge of the cliff at the end is a doozy! Personally would t be my intro trail, but you are in good hands, just trust your spotters.

    I think I will keep it like it is then. Any possibility of running something after fins on Saturday then? Something short near BFE? Minor threat? Strike ravine? Helldorado?

    That last one was a joke

    Has anyone ever taken a drive up Geyser Pass?

    I think I'll head up there on one of the days when the AM run gets finished early. It would be cool to check out some Moab High Country (elev. 10,600 @ the pass) and maybe wet a line.

    You are leading that run right? I am excited to run it! Do I add myself to
    Lists or does the trail leader do that?

    Good, the more the merrier!

    Snagged this from another forum, but here's a part of the petition they signed: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=19780900&postcount=26

    You can always research and decide for yourselves. We lived in Utah for 6 years and dealt with a lot of this controversy. They seem to beat around the bush a lot when people ask for a response but we ourselves will not eat there.

    But Moab Diner on the other hand...I'm all over that. Awesome food and super tasty ice cream. :cool:


    We're staying away from Moab Rim for a while since we about died on it last time LOL

    Moab Rim has some good obstacles but nothing any more difficult than Cliffhanger. What makes it feel scary is how everything is slightly off camber and there are parts that are close to ledges. It doesn't help that you see the 200' drop to the Colorado River right in front of you when you come down Devil's Crack. :)

    You truck and Bob's are plenty capable to handle the trail. It's as much a mental thing as anything else. It's just a trail you need to pay attention on so you don't get yourself in a bad spot carelessly.
