This will become a classic and a must do if you are mountain biking the area. There are several ways to acces...

Drive Long Canyon Road

Moab is an outdoor mecca, from rock climbing to mountain biking to 4WD adventures and while not particularly technical (it is only rated Class 2) the 7.8 mile Long Canyon Road just north of Dead Horse State Park is an excellent way to get a taste for the incredible features (and views) that the Colorado watershed and its canyons has to offer. While you can drive Long Canyon Road either east or ...
