Moab

[cbs001]

I will try to make the summer trip. I have been to Moab 3 times with the Raptor including a nice 2 days doing the White rim trail.
Some trail recs besides the usual suspect of trails that are very Raptor friendly:
1. Hurrah pass
2. Long Canyon- highly recommended
3. Behind the Rocks- awesome trail

If you are coming from Grand Junction two cool alternative ways to get to Moab is via the Gateway-Castleton Road or the Kokopelli trail.

That was a cool video! How much gas were you carrying?

Thanks It was actually just made with iMovie, which is a free app on iOS.

For the gas, it was four 5-gal gas cans and one 5-gal water can (the blue one). Probably a bit overkill but we were doing a cross-country trip with several other stops and we were by ourselves so I wanted to be over-prepared.

Now I have a Chase rack that holds one 5-gal, which should be plenty but I still have the old ones incase I want to strap those in as well.

Next trip is scheduled for March 7th and 8th (possibly some trails on Friday/Monday if time/weather permits). An early May trip is in the works as well but dates are TBD at this point. Will post more information for the March trip in the next few days.

Hmm.. I'm not sure I can swing the getting the days off. I'll check on Thursday. Which hotel is everyone staying at?

We'll be there first week of April and I have already mapped out the White Rim Trail. Should be nice

I cant make the March 7/8 trip. I am down for anytime in April or May.
