Cool offer to guide.

True dat! Moab is 2½ hours West of me, Silverton about 50 minutes North with Ouray another 30 past that, and as an added bonus, Choke Cherry Canyon in Farmington, NM is about 45 minutes South of me. Choke Cherry is the site of numerous rock crawling race stages/events throughout the year. It is a playground of sandstone/slickrock that is vastly different than Moab. What is neat about it is that you can follow a trail or find an area to play around in. Since it is all BLM, you can drive anywhere. Fun, fun!

Here are a few pics of Choke Cherry. Remember, since it is a 'playground', everything has a bypass if wanted/needed, and no... not everything is at that level of difficulty!
