Widow Maker: Mashin’ Metal in Moab

Posted by Admin in Metal Masher, Trails, tags: Easter Jeep Safari, Metal Masher, Moab Utah

Our friends over at “We Be Jeepin’ Moab” went out on the Metal Masher Trail this weekend, which is located about 8 miles NE of Moab.The trail itself is not that difficult, but that being said there is a helluva obstacle called The Widow Maker which is where a lot of the fun happens. The Widow Maker is a 6-foot nearly vertical climb with a sandy bottom. Not too bad for long wheel-based vehicles, but rear tippy for the shorter wheelbases. By the looks of the pictures Melissa sent us, she and her group had an amazing time while conquering The Widow Maker. Keep in mind that several of these gals and guys will be your trail leaders on the 2011 Easter Jeep Safari. I plan on cross-posting some of their blog posts to ours in the next 2 weeks, so you can get to know these lovely folks. After all, many of us are trusting them to lead us on some pretty rocky roads (and that is putting it lightly).

So anyhow, read their story and check out more pics over on their blog, webejeepinmoab.com. Take a look around while you are there. They have tons of info that you trail riders going to Moab might be interested in. Thank me later
