When the Trail Climbs Into the Sky: Driving Hell’s Revenge in Moab

There’s a point in Hell’s Revenge when the landscape ceases to appear like a normal trail. It’s not a dirt track through the desert. Instead, your UTV is pointed up at an enormous fin of sandstone.

Then you’ll start climbing. That is why Hell’s Retribution Moab is now well-known among off-road enthusiasts. The trail is made up of technical terrain, Utah scenery and a possibility to experience the red-rock landscape.

When you’re driving, you’re not alone in your travels

Slickrock: It’s Not what it’s called.

The “slickrock” popular feature of Moab and Moab, could be a shock to visitors. The name is a relic of earlier travelers who found rough sandstone difficult to handle for horses with metal shoes. For modern off-road vehicles, the experience is different.

Look Away From the Trail Sometimes

Hell’s Revenge may be all about driving, but it’s more than just adrenaline.

The route provides dramatic views of Moab’s red-rock countryside and includes views towards the Colorado River and surrounding desert. Echo Canyon, Devil’s Backbone and the real dinosaur tracks at Lion’s Back are all features of the region. These stops are a wonderful opportunity to capture photos and enjoy the unusual scenery.

Confidence Often Builds Mile by Mile

It’s fascinating to observe how quickly the view of the driver can change on a guided Moab UTV tour.

After following the steps and crossing several sections of slickrock, many drivers start to know what their vehicle can do and how best to tackle the terrain. The transition from fear to confidence is what sets a You Drive Tour different from simply watching someone else tackle the trails.

Bring home more than just Red-Rock Photos
