Talking First time to Moab..

So i went to Moab two weekends ago and here are the pics! Drove from Ogden which is like a 4 hour drive. Gotta love moab, its beautiful.



Just getting there. Can see my 4runner and my friends Jeeps in the back.

Heres the view from our campsite at Slickrock campgrounds. My buddys were there two nights before i had got there. We then decided to go to Sandflats campground where it was more open and not by so many people.


Looking for an open campsite..


So I had went to Moab with the intent to do some trails, Klondike Bluffs, Hey Joe Canyon, ... ya know. The easier ones. Soon as we got our stuff unpacked we went and did Baby Lions Back, since Lions Back is closed


Waiting to go up...




Now my turn..












On top..


So now on the other side, its filled with water. I was sure it wasn't really deep but, i didnt want to take the chance ha ha.




Had a hard time going up the way you're suppose to but i'd get almost all the way up then my hitch was digging into the ground, coudlnt get any higher

so had to go through a corner of the water and up the way you come down..


Kinda hectic but made it. and there is a HUGEEE mark in the ground on the other side of baby lions back thanks to my hitch
Cant wait to go back there in a few years and see it and just laugh haha.

Now onto watching my friend Chance do Potato Salad Hill..




Thought I had more pics!!!!!! He made it but we tied a tow strap to the front of his bumper to the front of my car so incase he did start to go backwards..




Then the next day we did Hells Revenge, by that i mean i rode in the back seat haha. Left the 4runner at camp





You like the green one? I hated it when he bought it but now its cool. Had to put an engine in it three months after owning it haha.


Tip Over Challenge



Messin around riding in the back haha.



Before I had got there my friends did Porcupine Rim, glad i wasnt there! This left them stranded for two hours.



But yep thats my trip. I'll get more pics from my friends cameras once they email them to me. Thanks for lookin.

Nice first time pics The water on the other side of baby lion's back (kittens back) is called Lake michigan. If you stay high right when it is low like that (yes that is low) you are fine. Kitten's back and lake michigan is actually the start of the hells revenge trail. Next time try Tip Toe through Hell (you bypass all the hard obstacles) and you'll have a great time!
