Trail Overview

Quick offshoot of Poison Spider Trail, which takes you up to a 300-degree panoramic view 1000 feet above the Moab Valley. Great spot for a break or lunch while on Poison Spider. This trail is no harder than the features on Poison Spider Trail, but is exceptionally narrow, so hold your breath and pray no one is coming the other way.

Difficulty

This trail is difficult with deep sand, slickrock ledges, and narrow off-camber sections. Water in excess of 12" is possible with weather conditions. The trail is significantly narrower in most sections, with no passing opportunity once the junction is cleared. All obstacles encountered are very similar to those found on the Poison Spider Trail.
