GPS coordinates Pickle

[George]

Anyone have the GPS coordinates for the start of the Pickle in Moab?

Thanks

I don't have them, but did you know Pickle is blocked off due to an avalanche of sorts, due to heavy rain, that dropped a massive boulder right in the middle of the trail?

how old is your intel?

I heard that it was passable again, just a little different on the "pickle" obsticle.

I was there over Turkey Day and it was passable then.

I stand corrected. Thanks for confirming, the last I'd heard was it was blocked.

I think Spencerai has run it, but you may have to listen to a long rant about axle wrap before he tells you about it.

These are the pics we took about 18 months ago. That is why folks thought the Pickle was impassable (Winch Fest).

So, out of curiousity, how far from Moab is this trail. Is it north or south of town and what's required to be able to run it? Those few pics that people posted make it look fun and I have a nice itch to head south.

I don't see why not. The pics of that new stuff would be my only concern for you.

Nifty....I've got a D35, so I am set

Two more months and maybe I'll head down there. I only got down once last year

It is a really short trail as well, and the some of the harder stuff has easier lines, and the waterfall at the end has a bypass. The other cool thing is that you come out in Hidden Canyon which has a lot of cool sand to play in!!
