Default White Rim Trail

90 mile scenic trail.. If you want to camp there are spots along the way. They are for reservation only and no ground fires.. Next time I want to take 4 days instead of two..
Here are a couple of pics from my phone more to follow soon.

That would be a great trip to take. I would love to get out on the trail and do some camping. Thanks for the pics, and feel free to post more.

This trail was filled with great views and I stopped everywhere I could. The difficult parts were narrow steep single lane. And pics from a distance wouldn't show correctly.

Reading through several threads regarding the WRT. Looks like if you just had a single day and wanted to venture out and turn around and retrace your steps you could? Won't be able to commit enough time to camp but would like to do a bit of cruising around and getting out on this trail.

We pretty much did this last year. We ran Potash road and the white rim trail just to muscleman arch, ate lunch then headed back to go up Shafer Switchbacks. After the switchbacks we ran "the island in the sky" road over to Gemini Brigdes trail and ran that down. It was a fun, easy day run. It was a good way to see a lot of the scenary that makes Moab so amazing.

We ran the White Rim this in September. What an awesome trip. Next time I want to do it in three days instead of two.
