    So happy you enjoyed this very special trail, which my husband, Dick Wilson, marked the white dots 1969. Memories of him.

    I was in Moab on an RV trip. I was going to go to slick rock but I didn't have the time. I ended up going to Deadhorse State Park while had a lot of mixed surfaces including slick rock. I didn't have a super nice bike (just a Cannondale hardtail) but I had a blast bombing through the sand the slick rock, with beautiful views into the canyon. A great introduction to MTB as a 13 y/o.

    Rode my dirt bike on theses trails and it was a blast . I often verbally gave mad props to the people on pedal bikes due to the dedication of the ride .

  • @trailrunnah8886
    @trailrunnah8886 7 лет назад

    I hit Slickrock when I was in Moab for the first time in May of 17. I loved it, one of the most fun trails I've ever done. The rollercoaster parts were a blast, and cleaning those climbs made me feel like a effin BOSS.

  • @andygolborne5747
    @andygolborne5747 Год назад

    Did the slickrock about 20 years ago with my wife on hardtails. It was all do-able following the white lines, but in August it was absolutely blistering hot. As things tend to be - in a desert, and apparently a heatwave. 45c during the day. We camped which was ridiculous in the heat and ended up moving into a motel. We were advised for the biking to be up at 5 am and be finished by 10, which was what we did. And take plenty of water. Fabulous day out, but no shelter when it's hot. We also did Porcupine Rim on that trip. Amazing. Would love to go back...

    I pedaled every inch of the slickRock trail in 1998 on a paramount series 80 hardtail with a old crappy Manitou in the front. I was in peak fitness and pride myself in climbing every obstacle without putting a foot down. I like that place.

      Lol yeah, I usually make the argument that you can do anything on a hardtail, but Porcupine Rim would be rough!

I really want to get better, thank you so much!

    I just rode in Moab yesterday! I have never ridden slick rock but I want to mark it off my list. I rode the Mag 7 trail system & finished up with the Portal Trail. The Portal Trail is so sketchy and terrifying!!!! Definitely ride the Mag 7 trail system next time you go. It's the best trail I have ridden all year so far.

    Absolutely love riding the slickrock trail! My ultimate favorite in Moab is the Whole Enchilada trail going from the base of La Sal Mountains riding on top of the plains and canyons all the way down a canyon back to the city of Moab. About a 6 hour ride downhill that is absolutely gorgeous!
    One day, I might make the move to move to Moab for a few months!

  • @kainpwnsu
    @kainpwnsu 2 года назад

    Just rode Porcupine Rim, Captain Ahab, and Slick rock. Had to come watch this again. It's fabulous. I drank 6 liters of water one day, and made only one pit stop. (It was 103°F.)
    People ask why I live way out in the big, square states. I just point at everything outside and then at my bikes.

    I live in Utah and have ridden Slickrock numerous times - Seth's Bike Hacks has it right in so many ways. This is not highly technical, but it's super steep and you do need basic skills such as downhill braking, hopping, and making drops. It's worth it though!

    Just went to Moab for a dirt bike trip had so much fun on the slick rock! But definitely don’t go down hills to fast if you don’t know what’s below you. For all you know it’s a cliff. Then the next thing you know you grab a hand full of back brake and are tumbling down the rock. Lol
