| I just came back from Moab and what a beautiful place it is. I have a ton of pictures and video that I need to go through and post on this thread. I still need to organize them, and get all the video footage in order. One of the guy's posted some raw footage on YouTube from my camera. This is on Porcupine Rim, and this was a very challenging Technical trail. We also White Water rafted and repelled of 150' high cliffs. The trail is 26 miles long and another 4 miles back to Moab to get to the car. They guy's gave me the "Unbreakable" award, as i fell so often and got right up and carried on going. Flipped over my handle bars half a dozen times, and I do have footage of that somewhere too. https://youtu.be/g9zuoxeFFBE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4QHMqqobT0&feature=player_detailpage <--- not our footage, but it inspired su to do this run. I will be back some day with the Jeep. | |

| Unfortunately I ran out of batteries for the camera, the real fun was at the end of the trail, were you were just inches away from drops from 30' to hundreds of feet. I actually made a real hard fall when I jumped this one ledge, if I had fallen two feet to the right, I'd have fallen 60' straight down. Sometimes you just get lucky. | |

| Dang those videos make me want to go riding. I have been to Moab a couple times to go wheeling but have yet to go biking out there. Looks like a blast!

| Muscles are feeling fine, just bruised up and lots of scabs on the legs and arms. I will say that it is worth a trip to Moab with the Jeep club. The place is not expensive. We rented a two bedroom two bath for $900. There were 5 of us, and there are enough places to sleep.
Food and drink prices in Moab are the same as here in San Antonio. | |
