I managed to make it out east a couple of weeks ago. The original plan was to loop around Factory Butte and Capitol Reef, but the BLM contact told me the trail was impassable just before I left. Fortunately it dried out enough on the way back from Moab (my plan B) - just before another storm hit...
Shafer Trail, Island in the Sky District, Canyonlands NP. Interesting to run this one top to bottom after storms - a bit more attention needed on those slippery hairpins near the top ;)
The freshly installed Front Runner slimline rack survived the trip without falling off, which was nice.
Just moved to Southwest Utah from CA. Most of my 'exploring' will be for photography - that will pick up once the temperatures start to average below 90 during the day ;) Next trip will likely be to the Hanksville area (Factory Butte, Goblin Valley etc.) in October.
