Cruise Moab 2022. Act 3: Exploring Arches

Cruise Moab offers participants three days of guided trail rides in and around Moab. With trails ranging from a scenic drive to some of the most challenging trails that Moab has to offer. There’s two overnight trail runs that are offered as well.

For the first full day of trail rides, I tagged along with my pal Tim. He leads a family fun run into Arches National Park. It’s a trail that I’ve never fully done before so was great to see some new country. Unfortunately, our permits to be allowed into the park somehow didn’t make it into the trail leader packet, so we had to go to plan B and come in the back way. Some wonderful views of the La Sal mountains. From there, we made our way to Tower Arch for Lunch.. After we continued on the mellow dirt road, ending at Balanced Rock. A beautiful day on the trail:).

Later that day and into the evening, Cruise Moab hosts a “Vendor Night”. Something that has become quiet popular. This year, we filled up the Spanish Trails arena, with some vendors showing off there products outside. I managed to sell out of my Cruise Moab 2022 poster:).
