The first day Shawn, Sean, Shannon, and I broke ourselves in on Fins N Things. Rated difficult in the eyes of Charles Wells (wrote the book Moab, UT Backroads and 4-wheel drive trails), rated incredible by the rest of us. Unbelievable amounts of tire traction allowed us to scale these "Fins" as they are called. Trail was 11 miles and took us about 5 hours (with lunch). Enough talk, here are some photos.
The only mishap was a momentary lapse of judgement by Mr. Seal (it was REAL hot), but it was quickly rememdied by my brother and his truck. Had Mr. Seal gone another 4 or 5 inches, he would have mashed his exhaust crossover pipe and ruined the rest of his day. But, in the end, no real harm. He did however rip off a mudflap, ouch!
Way to go! What's been the highlight so far - all of it? I like the first photo; looks like you had to tow the other tow vehicles up. And it looks like the trail is well marked, so you won't get lost. Mudflat is a pretty small ouch, considering.

That's so cool and we're totally envious! Wishing y'all challenging trails and star-filled desert nights...
