Cruise Moab 2009 Pix

[Tools R Us]

There was an arch shown on the topo, so had to make the detour.

The payoff, a great overlook! There are several more that we didn’t have time for, so are saved for a future trip.

More feeble attempts at photography, this stuff doesn’t fit in a camera.

Found a nice wide graded road and took that out, ended up on I70 near Thomson Spring. As we pulled into the air up spot, these guys were running along with my rig, so blasted a bunch of pix.

The scale out there is difficult to bring across...

 

[GeoRoss]

Finger crossing doesn't work well, committing, planning works better. .... Are you bringing Hanna? ;p

That is true. Taking kids is hard with the school thing but who knows.

Your good to go, the guy who peed on your tent said he's sorry.

Ross, we saw your buddy on the first night. I asked him if he'd peed on anyones tent yet. He was quite embarassed, It might be safe for you to go back.

That is awesome!

I have bene patiently waiting for Ross to explain this piece of interesting asteriod like terra....

My professional opinion is that it is either a rock or an old cow pie.


It could be like that simply due to erosion/weathering or maybe something like a volcanic bomb.

That's Golden Spike. The harder line is down to the left. You-all took the normal drop. Fun stuff...then the next one right by the tree.

Nice! Those are in the step section just before the crack on Spike. I have a love/hate relationship with that area. It's fun, challenging, but your already ~15 degrees off camber to driver, so whenever drivers tires drop the adrenalin flows, easy to have a Depends moment there.

 

[ShottsUZJ100]

Ya, that ledge is fun. Since my lift is only 3" and my ass is longer on the 100, I had both rear wheels off the ground for a sec while dropping down.

 

[Tools R Us]

That is awesome!

IIRC it went something like,,,, Are you the guy that tripped over our trailer? .... Reply ... Are you the guy that peed on Ross's tent? Once the reintroductions were over, all was good.

It's ~3' long, so that would be a large cow?

Prehistoric megafauna?

 

[Blues Dawg]

that would make it a very large coprolite...

Alright, one more video. This one is 10 minutes, kinda long but its of Wipeout Hill and its not the fastest obstacle to go down. I captured Jim, Rob, Kevin, Claudia and Michael going down.

If any of you guys want all or some of the video I shot on a DVD let me know. It wont be as pixelated as you see on youtube.
