Steel Bender was the last trail of the trip to Utah. It was just Matt and Julie on this run. It was close to Moab and not that long of a trail, which was on purpose. Matt need to have the Jeep rental back at the end of the day

The trail start out nice, and soon got very rocky with slickrock and many hill climbs. Soon we made it to the slickrock fin. We both went up the fin as now that is part of the trail.

After some time of driving we made it to the Wall. The Wall was much bigger then before, with a lot more eroded at the bottom. We both had to go down the far left side of the Wall. It was very steep. We both did not like going down the Wall but we made it.

As far the rest of Steel Bender goes, it was slow going but fun. Then we came up to the creek crossing the end of the trail, which was also fun.

It was a fun day of four-wheeling and Matt had a few hours before the Jeep rental needed to be back. The rental Jeep was great, and so was the trip!

This was Terry’s first trail in Moab for the week we were in Utah but it was Matt’s only trail for the entire trip. The weather was great — it wasn’t too hot and it was very sunny. We ran the trail from the north end to the south end….
