Anyone run this trai?
Is it still open?
What is needed as far a rig to run this trail?

I've never heard of either of them. I'd appreciate any info too.

"The Pickle," is a short narrow side canyon off the Bartlet Wash, I have a map with it highlighted if you want to know more specifics.
I've still never heard of "Hang Man".
I did however find out about 2 other VERY obscure trails. So, how many of you Moab frequenters have heard of "Where Eagles Dare" or "Killer Kane Mines"?

Both "Where Eagles Dare" and "Killer Kane Mines" are awesome trails. Where Eagles Dare is a loop off of Golden Spike. It has some extremely steep slickrock, a great overlook (looking down on Corona Arch) and some other fun stuff. It is almost never used, and is barely marked. It is not on the BLM maps (although we did submit it for their pre-RMP inventory), so I fully expect to lose it.
Killer Kane climbs the shelf between Hurrah Pass and Cliffhanger. It has some neat obstacles, and some magor drop-offs. It dead ends up on top near some old mining activity. We also submitted this trail to the BLM inventory, but it is mostly on SITLA land. Also, it crosses private property at the bottom, and the land owner had it posted last time I was there.

Well I don't know if it will happen or not, but on the amended 5-year permit application that I turned in today, I put The Pickle, Where Eagles Dare, and Killer Kane Mines, in addition to Hotel Rock, Rusty Nail, The Escalator, and Hell's Gate which were already submitted. So, cross your fingers.

So, cross your fingers. Too cool. I hope they listen and respond accordingly. It's so odd to me they claim that the area is being ruined, yet after a storm you can't tell some of those places have even been run. |

Hang man I suppose to be up in the yello cat area ... you need to go up ythe river over the bridge then back west toward the east side of arches... then it is suppose to be a side canyon back to the south in there some where .... the entrance is guarded by a very high water fall that is accessable only by winch. Hence the name HANG MAN .. other than that I'm not sure where it's at
