so my overview of Moab


Moab is sweet - no other way to say it - the camping is free - in the desert; over aminities (except a sketchy porta potty) - not even water, but you just drive the hour into moab, stock up - and you're set - that's camping at Indian Creek....which is awesome!


Its basically just a bunch of splitter - perfect cracks - with sometimes roofs and features and that sort of thing...

So a lot of times - you need like 8 number 2 BDs...its crazy like that.

Moab itself is a cool little town - mormon, but not giving in without a fight. The downtown library is great - and they have a bunch of cool audio books!


Wall Street - belaying off your bumper - is where good routes go to die...the rock is pretty bad...like its cool to climb, its just scary to fall on....

If you're going to the creek - and are not a crack climber, you're gonna need a lot of rest days - my quads and ankles hurt from putting them in cracks...seriously...its like you got down wrestling a bear when you get off a route!


Its crazy - the desert, you just don't feel like you're on earth. You don't believe that something like that exists on the earth....its rad....
