Moab, UT

Even though we have seen jeeps and ATVs/UTVs on trails alone, it is not a good idea...always have a buddy!
Joe is installing a new CB radio today. I took a picture of the tools we carry in Pearl when we ride trails. It is also a very good idea to carry fluids for the brakes, radiator, transmission, etc.
The Colorado River |
Looking down on Fischer Towers |
Taking in the view...it's always amazing to see the beauty and grandeur of it all.
Professor Valley |
Professor Valley framed by the La Sal Mountains and Scenic Hwy 128 |
With more to see and do, we were on our way again...
The Caves Spring were our next stop. |
As I climbed over the sandy entrance, the darkness swallowed everything. Then 2 beams of light...
My camera shows the rest...am I face to face with two Neanderthals or is it just Dave and Richie playing games?
Our next ride on Owl Draw was very pretty and mostly smooth sailing as we climbed the plateau again.
Our last stop along the way was the old mining camp where two cabins that were built with railroad ties have withstood the test of time and weather.
Installation added at some point, was cardboard attached to the ceiling and walls with tin can lids and nails. |
Joe did a great job of holding things together while we checked it all out! |
We continued on Owl Draw until the end of trail at Hwy 128 a few miles east from where we started on the same highway.
Dome Plateau is certainly a fun trail to do. Allow 6 to 7 hours if exploring and taking small hikes is something you enjoy. Well worth the time!
Until next time, happy days and...
HAPPY TRAILS!
