    Just got back from Moab, running the setup in the original post.

    Being near-novice we ran Chicken Corners and Hurrah first day, HellRoaring Rim second, Fins third, Dome Plateau fourth, and Tip Toe Hell's Revenge on the last day. Fins was a perfect challenge for us as far as skill and equipment. Fun with no damage. Tip Toe there was a lot of hitch drag and a few narrow misses, but fine otherwise. Definitely some nerve-fraying descents, tight spots, and narrow tracks on Tip Toe. Everything else was fun and relaxing, great scenery.

    did u do hell’s gate??? if so how was it, i’ve seen a jeep flip on it when so many others seem to go right up it, i feel like the longer wheel base and heavier vehicles have a less difficult time on it from all the vids i watch on it

    We did not do Hell's Gate. I think my Tacoma setup is perfectly capable of it, I just wasn't willing to risk it. If I were to try it, I would do a few ride-alongs with people who have done it before. There is a section near the top where the left opens up and it looks like you have to turn-in to the right to stay up the wall. Other obstacles we took a pass on were escalator and tip-over. Found the trail to be intense enough without.

    First time we went nobody had experience rock crawling but lots of experience off road together. So we started with Fins and things and ended the week with The Trifecta. All of us took some damage though
    This was the worst of it. He "fixed" it with a sticker

    We ran those two weeks ago. Poison Spider wasn't bad at all but I lost my rear bumper caps somewhere on GS.
