Buy this book!

This book has everything you need to get to Moab, pick a trail that is right for you and have a great time. There are overall technical ratings for each trail, individual technical ratings for each part of every trail, elevation maps, detailed overhead maps, instructions for particularly troublesome areas...it is all here. Someone said that it would not fit in a Camelbak, but it easily fits in one of the smaller pockets of my MULE. When I'm there next week, it will definitely not be left back at camp, but will be with me on every mile of slickrock that I ride. Do not buy Lee Bridgers' book! This one is less expensive, of higher quality and you can take it with you wherever you go.

Moab mtn biking...really

This book caught my attention. The trail descriptions, maps, and difficulty ratings really provide a pretty good estimation of what to expect on each trail. (Which really comes in handy when matching up technical ability and endurance to particular trails.) Believe me, some of the trails mentioned are extremely challenging... and you don't want to get stuck on a trail that you aren't ready to ride. Please follow the advice given on the trails listed when it comes to your endurance/technical ability. This could mean the difference between injuring yourself or hoofing it back to the trailhead on foot. If you have never ridden in or around Moab, this is a must-have book. Even as someone who has ridden in the area many times, I still use this to select which trail or trails I want to ride depending on the amount of time I have each day. My advice: buy this book, read it, stuff it in your bag, and head to Moab. While it's too large to easily fit in a camelback, read through it at night while in the hotel planning out the next day's adventures.
