This was also filmed at the Tristate Jam last March.
This is know as the Mail Drop Loop.
The Mail Drop Ride begins in the Elephant Butte area a few miles south and west of the Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park. The routes in this area are primarily sandy two-track roads with a few sections of slickrock sandstone. This area has exceptional beauty and panoramic views of several scenic areas including Zion National Park, the Blocks, Canaan Mountain and Elephant Butte. The ride is named for its proximity to the location where the U.S. mail for residents in the upper Virgin River was let down a 300-foot ledge via a pulley system for several years. unfortunately, motorized vehicles cannot access the actual location.

Sombeech,
I was up front. It was like a bobsled run. :)
I have some Moab video, I'll post it.

Sweet. Going to Moab this fall made me want to buy an ATV instead of a Jeep. |
