Re: Moab 2004
They look great Jerry. I even recognized a few rigs. I'm hopefully taking
Thursday off to go run Cliffhanger with a bunch of Jeepster owners. If I
can get out of a few work commitments.

Re: Moab 2004
I'm going with a group in 3 weekends; we plan to do cliffhanger. How
bad is that supposedly "bad" step on the shelf road? (Reading about
the trail in a book.) Is it as pucker-inducing as the book implies, or
is the author overexaggerating again? The pic does look pretty crazy,
and near the ledge ;-)
We're also doing Moab Rim during the trip; any thoughts/opinions on
that trail?
Thanks,
Bob

Re: Moab 2004
I'm going with a group in 3 weekends; we plan to do cliffhanger. How
bad is that supposedly "bad" step on the shelf road? (Reading about
the trail in a book.) Is it as pucker-inducing as the book implies, or
is the author overexaggerating again? The pic does look pretty crazy,
and near the ledge ;-)
We're also doing Moab Rim during the trip; any thoughts/opinions on
that trail?
Thanks,
Bob

If you are refferring to Chas Wheeler's Moab Trails book, it's not quite as
bad as he describes it. I tried to convey the relationship between the
obstacle and the cliff edge in the photos. The obstacle is about 4 ft. high,
but is not off camber towards the edge, so if you managed to roll, it's
highly unlikely you'd go off the edge.
That being said, it's a major ledge that requires good spotting. I would not
do it alone, in fact like most Moab trails, it's not adviseable to be out
there on your own.
I don't have any experience with Moab Rim. (MAybe next year.) The Red Rock 4
Wheelers rate it 4+. They're always consistent in their ratings.
