The last day we decided to do a quick and easy run through Bald Mountain Gulch, which is on the Southside of the 4 Mile of Buena Vista.

Then through my carelessness I snagged a sharp rock and blew the sidewall of my tire.

I just did this loop a couple weeks ago, nice photos.

Great trails for sure. Bummer about the tire though!

It is a great trail! Glad I hit it when I did. They got around 2 feet of snow on Tuesday.

After 6 months I finally got my Avid Off-Road Sliders w/ Top Plate. It wasn't Avids fault, Covid delayed them and I missed the opportunity to pick them up in Phoenix.

It is a first gen Sequoia wheel. Unfortunately it is my buddies full size spare and not mine. I am now looking into Sequoia wheels, they do look pretty nice.

Time to hit the ICONIC White Rim Trail. This trail is full of epic views and well worth the effort to get permits.

Day 3 of White Rim was fairly short. I believe we were back in Canyonlands around 11-11:30, which worked out great for this. It was extremely busy in Moab, the fact we got back early made it possible to get a campsite.
