Looks like the U4WDA is having their 2006 Winter Convention in Moab in February. This is soo cool. Here are the details in case you haven't heard.
Fellow Utah Wheelers,
The U4WDA Winter Convention is almost upon us. February 4 is the day. The Moab Friends-For-Wheeling Club is kind enough to be setting this up. The following message is the latest information, straight from Moab's own Jeff Stevens and Holly Jensen:
The Moab Room at the Moab Valley Inn has been booked for the event and a catered breakfast will be served. The Moab Valley Inn’s address is 711 S. Main. It is the blue hotel ½ block south and across the street from McDonald’s. Their phone number is (435) 259-4419 or toll-free (800) 831-MOAB and they will be offering $65.00 rooms for $55.00 if you are coming for the convention.
Several other hotels and their phone numbers include:
Best Western Canyonlands Inn (435) 259-2300
Best Western Greenwell Inn (435) 259-6151
Big Horn Lodge (435) 259-6171
Super 8 (435) 259-8868
Sleep Inn (435) 259-4655
Motel 6 (435) 259-6686
LaQuinta Inn (435) 259-8700
Several trails will be offered after the meeting and will include:
Fins n’ Things - Rated a 3 ½. This will be the easiest trail and will require a $5.00 per vehicle Sand Flats Recreation Fee.
Two medium-difficulty trails will be scheduled:
Seven-Mile Rim including Wipe-Out Hill - Rated a 3 ½ + and is decidedly more difficult than Fins n’ Things.
Strike Ravine - also has a 3 ½ + rating.
For those of you who love hard-core wheelin’:
Area BFE - rating of 4 - 5+. Jeff Stevens will lead "Green Day" trail and opportunities for extreme obstacles abound. Upper Helldorado is also located here. Area BFE has a donation box and any donations are greatly appreciated. All trails will start meeting at 9:45 am at the old Cattleman’s Saloon about 2.25 miles south of town along Hwy. 191. This is located just south of Rock Plaza, home of Moab 4X4 Outpost. Moab Friends-For-Wheelin’ will have a sign to help you find it. Trails will depart as soon as possible after the meeting is over. After the trails, come join Moab Friends-For-Wheelin’ for chili, hot dogs, hot chocolate and cider around the bonfire out at the Area BFE parking lot!
