Wow That looks like a fun trip. I'm sorry that I have a commitment this weekend or I would certainly like to join you folks.
BTW John, What runs did you do in Moab when you were there last?
Alex and I ran Top of The World and Fin's N Things. Since we were running solo, I kept the trails familiar and fairly obstacle friendly. It was his first trip too, and I didn't want to scare him off.
Here is a picture he snapped on Fins...
