Ok guys as I explained in 2023 information thread, the new process requires us to submit with our application exactly what trails we will be taking for this year's event. I know it's very early for us, but we have to make the change or the application isn't going anywhere within the process without it. With that we have a hard deadline to submit the ITA by the second Monday in January. We have this week to discuss it and by Saturday we will finalize the selections and I will push forward with the process.

I will handle the trail lead on the easy trails, those that want to lead trails please speak up in the discussion. Without further delay here are the trails I've put together for thought starters.

Friday:

Easy- Potash Rd, Thelma and Louise point, Musselman arch, Shaffer Switchbacks
Medium- Backwards Bill
Hard- Pickle

Saturday:
Easy- Hurrah pass, Chicken Corners
Medium- Flat Iron Mesa
Hard- Pritchett

Sunday:
Easy- Fins n things
Med- Hells Revenge
Hard- Moab rim

If you have a specific trail you would like a group to take, now is the time to speak up. We can't deviate from what I put on the application once I put it in. So please join the discussion and make your voice heard. Once this is set it will be it and those that didn't participate really can't complain. I know this will not please everybody, but it's the way we have to operate and I don't want to just dictate it and take the choice completely away from participants. So we have a little bit of time to talk it out and pick what most want. This is YOUR event so we need to know what you want.

Thanks- Z
 
I am in on any easy trial all 3 days. Will be my 1st time in Moab, and I have never actually had this truck in 4 wheel drive, bluetooth driveshaft for my whole ownership. Second I don't want to beat it up since I will need to drive it home. Since the wifey will be with me I think see would like to see Thelma and Louise point.
 
Mediums here, only seen the trails we ran last year so whatever is picked for medium will be good with us
 
Like I mentioned, I would list at least 10 trails for the permit. Not knowing how many are showing up, you can just not run some trails. It would suck to pick too few and have the groups too big.
I’m planning on taking the suggestions from here to add in with the rest.
 
I also missed out on poison spider, so I too would be game for that one.
 
I have always enjoyed Crack-N-Back. Whatever that trails ends up being. Kinda make it as hard as you want trail plus medium stuff.

I don’t remember doing MM or SB. Id like to do Moab Rim again, though I missed it 2022.
 
Got to do Hells in there somewhere. I like it Friday, simple, easy or hard and close to town and their is a new way to go I have not tried yet.
