    Josh (sierrahsky) his girlfriend and I recently had the fortune to be able to take a trip out to Moab. Neither of us had been and so we researched some trails and decided we were going to try and run Poision Springs Canyon, Fins n things, Hell's Revenge, Chicken Corners, Hurrah Pass, and then see Arches. Well the plan went just a bit differently.

    We left Reno around 8 after a breakfast at the Black Bear Diner in Sparks, filled up in Fallon and headed east on 50 towards Austin. We stopped where the shoe tree once stood and took in the sights.

    We also saw these guys checking out the tree.

    After stopping at the fallen shoe tree we continued on through Austin to Big Smoky Valley where we stopped at some hot springs for lunch.

    I saw this sticker on the guards they must have recently installed over the hotter springs and it made me smile.

    Continuing on through Eureka and into Ely we stopped for gas and then to take a couple photos of the 13,065 ft Wheeler Peak.

    the rest of my pictures are going to be down for a bit... I re upped these to a different account but it'd take far too long to upload everything else.

    Well I got an extra set that I'm painting satin black to match my rear bumper and front, just testing it out to see if I like the look of it

    Ahhh, I think that will look real nice. I'm painting mine black as well, but they won't look like yours so don't worry.

    I'm copying Eric, not you. :D

    Nah, I'll let Anton keep his secrets. I'm having a local guy from the Reno4x4 forums cut them for me. He's documenting everything he does as well. We'll see how they turn out, apparently he's pleased so far.
