1st trip to Moab

[mas280]

Just went on my 1st trail today with my 2016 trail. My 4Runner performed very good and only hit the hitch a few times. The trail was Fins n Things. Here for a few more days if anyone has trail recommendations for me.

Great pics and congrats!! Is your 4Runner stock ride height (stock suspension)?

Traildamage.com rates Fins n Things 4 or 5 out of scale of 10. This may be the limit for stock 4runner? Find some other trails with similar rating? http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=25

Got a 3" King lift on it with 275 BFG. But everything else is stock.

Ahhhh... I looked in the whee wells and can see the Kings in there! How do you like the way the Kings handle vs. Stock Suspension?

Never ran it but top of the world is supposed to be pretty spectacular. An easier trek I've done that's worth the time is to head towards musselman arch, then up the schaffer trail and out. Do you have the guidebook for moab?

Ride is a little better than stock. I wish the 4Runner would ride better.

The Wells guide is great. Fins and Things is super duper easy, you can go way harder then that. Hells Revenge is next door and also easy. Not very interesting trails though. I would recommend White Rim for sure, easy but a good scenic overview and take longs canyon back.

I think for stock Elephant Hill in Canyonlands is beautiful and fun.

Thanks, I am more interested in good views vs harder trails. Will look at White Rim in the book.

Elephant Hill is in Needles (South of Moab). If you go there, you shouldn't miss the Colorado River Overlook Trail, which starts from the parking lot of the Needles visitor center. Lockhart Basin is a great way to get from Moab to Needles if you have a full day to do it in.
