White Wash Trip

Fun trail Tony introduced me

I thought my dog was the spoiled one until I saw this

Owen found an artifact, a barrel! And rolled it up the hill.

Some slickrock, best part of the trail.

Is this heaven? No, it's Moab, Utah. Over President's Day, my brother, Tony and his family invited me down to camp and stuff at White Wash Dunes near Green River, UT. They motor biked and I mountain biked. The first ride I did didn't turn out so good, I went to do a trail near Dee Pass but after mile 3, it got muddy so I turned around and did some more riding on a dirt road then later that night, it got sunny while the sun was setting, I've decided to ride and try to follow Tony and his family, since they got motors on their bikes, they took off so I followed their tracks and had a much better ride. I got a total of 25 miles that day.

The next morning which is Saturday, Tony introduced me a really good ride he liked so much and thought I should mountain bike on it. He drew me a map and I started riding, then went on some cool slickrock that looked like Goblin Valley. I went into a puddle of water then got my chain wet, my chain kept sucking in and it was impossible to keep going. Luckily Tony rode by on his motor bike and I asked him to go back to camp to get my chain lube, 20 minutes later, he came back with my lube and I was back in business. Thanks Tony! At first, I was going the wrong way then Tony showed me the way and I went up this steep hill and rode at the top for a while for like 3 miles or so. I got 10 miles on that day.

On Sunday, I wanted to ride on slickrock and Tony told me where to go to ride on some. So I rode quite a bit that day and got 19 miles.

I am glad we've decided to go because all along we thought we were going to get snowed or rained on but it only rained for like 25 minutes on Saturday afternoon and that's about it. Everywhere else in Utah got a lot of snow or rain, I think we got really lucky! It was great. Warm, not like super warm but comfortable enough to get a few rides, maybe mostly around upper 40s to the lower 50s during the whole time. I had a lot of fun doing things with 2 nephews and niece. Hannah took me on a treasure hunt one morning and we all watched a lot of movies together, watched Little Rascals three times and Napolean Dynamite twice in one day! The trip was a blast and a very beautiful setting. I won't ever forget how pretty Southern Utah can get!
