    Hotel Rock
    This is a 5-6 rated Jeep trail. Lots of rock crawling and great fun.

    Bears Ears/Canyonlands Camp Departure
    Good run to a beautiful camp. Definitely need to air down and do not recommend running this trail alone.

    Lost Arch Canyon Track
    This trail is a county toad. Lightly, very lightly maintained. Narrow in a number of places, low hanging trees. Beautiful canyon, lots to enjoy.

    Trip with Paul
    This started as a trip thru Davis canyon to see some cliff dwellings and ended up in Lock Hart Basin to a Mesa with some awesome camping sites.

    North Fork Mule Canyon
    Pretty canyon that held water in mid November. Lots of ruins close to the trail. Uncrowded!

    Cave towers
    Some of the towers were very well-preserved. Easy route finding and short, would make a good family hike.
