    Maybe there is someone else who is doing that trail but not leaving that day who would want to run something else around that area before heading back to Moab and BFE.

    fun trail across 128 from the TOTW entrance is dome plateau...it's a long series of trails back there, but all easy trails (a couple optional spurs that are more difficult, but mainly all easy). some caves, arches and old buildings to explore back there

    ran it the thursday of cruise...deepest spot was to the sliders

    i know first time i ran it with jace, the deepest spot we found was actually a spot we detoured up the creek instead of crossing the creek at a spot. but i stayed in line this time :(

    i have tons of video from the whole trail, i only edited and posted the main obstacles so far with a couple pics

    Trying to leave around 4 so maybe we can head out together. We should exchange names and numbers so that we can talk on Wednesday and Thursday to see if it will work. I am going to try to pack up the night before so when I get done teaching I can just load up the wife and baby and roll out like autobots.

    Dudei told you one in front one behind well double strap the front and well let you down with a winch. It's just one drop and the rest of the trail is a cake walk... So youre going cuz you cant be a pussy your entire life.

    How would you feel if we ran the same day just not the same time?? I don't like waking up early much...
    Edit: reason i ask is as far i have seen our groups tend to move really fast and you may get lapped..

    i know a lot of us run ch 2 normally. so ch 2 could be a good choice for around camp and leaving camp.

    at the trail, those in the group may need to change it for various reasons (too much traffic, someone not getting a clear reception on that channel, etc.)

    i know adam has already distinguished his channels, for all others not posted, i'd say that will be up to those on the trail to determine while airing down.
