Andrew Clark from the UK proved to not be the typical guest. I tip my hat to him for the amount of activity he and Catherine packed into their trip. This is obviously not for the faint of heart but intriguing to see others do it.

"Starting the climb to the craziest pinnacle in the world in a rather undignified manner, doing the jump and hump start to the "diving board" start. Jump too far and it's straight down to the bottom on the other side."
Did both of these trips with Moab Desert Adventures - who deserve a plug.

Peekaboo trail in the Needles - best hike ever. Little challenging in places but within the capabilities of anyone reasonably fit and doesn't suffer from vertigo. Scenery and solitude are stunning.

Andrew and Catherine, were obviously not as interested in the rocking chairs on the front porch of the cabin as so many are. In fact unusually cold weather this past April of 2011 kept them from enjoying the front porch experience but as evidenced by these photos, it did not inhibit their activity.

Andrew biking slick rock. Notice the small white lines painted on the rock to mark the trail. Easy to get disoriented for first time visitors the white lines have saved many a rider when it comes time to head back to the truck. Orinally painted by motor bike enthusiasts the trail has become a favorite for mountain bikers.
