Before I even set up camp I ran baby lions back.

I camped at the base of baby lions back.

After I set up camp I ran Hell's Revenge.
They paved the staging area.

Right above the black hole I could see some vehicles.

Turns out it was the 2012 Jeep Cherokee, and they were testing the brakes.

For some reason I can not remember the name of the guy in the jeep. He is the one Mickeys hot tub is named after. BTW the new Cherokee looks like it will be a minivan.

Wed I ran Fins n Things.
Pictures never make the angles look steep.

Then I decided to run Poison Spider

I barely made it out before the sun went down.

And today before I left I ran Hell's again.:crazy:

Overall the truck did awesome. I only almost rolled the truck twice. Had to hit the gas to save it going down the waterfall on Poison spider.

No there were some people from Pirate4x4 out there, and a guy from colorado4x4, but Fins was the only trail where there was another vehicle tagging along with me.

This is my 4th time going to Moab. It's about a 4hr drive.

Dan Mick is the guy in the White/Brown/Black jeep. I want his job.

I talked to him once. I was on Hell's on my ATV and I stopped to look at the Escalator. He pulled up, got out of his jeep and said "I have to take a leak."

I laughed, and rode on.

Thanks for the pictures!
