TRAIL DESCRIPTION:Enjoy this evening version of Hell's Revenge!
The famous Slickrock trail lies northeast of town between the Sand Flats Road and the river. Its nickname is the "Moab Rollercoaster." Large vistas sweep full circle from the La Sal Mountains through Arches National Park to the cliff rims that overlook Moab Valley.
The nearby country is an amazing stretch of bare sandstone with clefts and canyons, including the Colorado River canyon. The first clump of Slickrock has high mounds and steep descents that lead to a second mound that does the same thing. The major Slickrock area includes steep climbs, sharp turns, and a hair-raising descent along a steep ridge with little room for error left or right.
"Tip-Over Challenge" is a brief rock hill with a sandy base that requires tight maneuvering, an excellent line of attack, some help in the differentials, or the easy bypass on a slick rock fin.
