11-5-99: Slickrock, Poison Spider, Needles

Note: I have fixed some of the problems with the prior pages....

The main contingent of riders did Slickrock, most for the first time. Standard comment: "Quite a workout". One rider was hurt while walking down a steep section. Sandpaper burns only. Three of the "CityDash" guys did the Poison Spider trail, which finishes by descending a cliff into Moab, along a two-foot wide ledge. Even Troy, who does Eco-challenge events (and wins) said he was scared. Jim and Jim went to Needles/Canyonlands NP and squeezed through some slot canyons.
