Rainbow falls is an area off of Hwy 67. From there you just kinda head out on whatever FS road you feel like.
There is one interesting area some call "moab hill" cause it is an outcropping of red rock. Kinda fun to mess around on. | |

| Well it was Ken, Eric and myself on the run today. Eric showed up with a new front bumper and new sliders that look very nice on his FJ80. We headed for the ledge area and played around there for some time trying different lines with Ken's FJ40, Eric's FJ80 and my FJ60. We tried to put Eric's new sliders to the test but the locked FJ80 worked too well. Maybe we can put Eric's sliders to the test on the next run. Ken's FJ40 climbed over the ledges very nicely with the low gears and ARB's.
After leaving the ledge area we had a nice easy run up 344 to 348 to Rampart Range Road and back home again. The weather was great and traffic on the trails was lower than I expected considering all the ATV's we saw going up the pass when we waiting at the Western station. Gas was $2.02 at the Western station by the way.
I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures to post but I think Eric and Ken may have a couple of pictures so maybe they will post a couple of pictures.
