Dry Creek Canyon. Could hear a creek down there but wasn't willing to risk falling down the scree.
Nearing the bottom of Dry Creek Canyon and the end of the 4th day of riding.
We had been stopped by thunderstorms from going to the Bryce Canyon area on Thursday. This storm stopped us again on Friday. Got hit by a small downpour with big fat drops that hurt at 35 mph.
Came around a corner to see 2 large redtail hawks. They flew off to reveal their dinner.

Heading out to the dunes at Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, two hours south of Marysvale.
Moose One and PJ heading out.
Rain stayed just to the east of us. Didn't get a drop while we were there.
Captured the color a little better in this pic.

Climbed to the top of that one. 4wd was a must for my beast in the dunes.
Moose One tried to climb this innocent looking dune. Was much steeper than anticipated. He had to back down laying on the handlebars. This pic is after when he wanted to climb and look around.
Our steeds. My Outlander Max XT-P 650. Moose One and PJ's Scrambler XP 1000's. They had a good bit easier time than I did. They rode mostly in 2wd. I was surprised by how well my beast did.
Loading up for the long ride home.

Looks like you all had a great time. Great pics. I wish I lived closer. Just haven't had the time to travel anywhere that far away. I'd like to think my Brute would do pretty good in the dunes too. I wouldn't quite be able to keep up with those Scramblers but I bet I wouldn't be left too far behind.

Love it!! Thanks for sharing the pics. Looks like you guys had a great time. I still dream of getting the time and funds to together for a trip to the Piaute trails someday. Pretty cool getting to meet Doug, I like watching his shows on YouTube. Thanks again for sharing.
