Trail Day Five(Last) - Poison Spider Mesa/Gold Bar Rim/ Golden Spike/Rusty Nail Cont.
After the Golden Crack we were still trying to find that shortcut and ended up on the Rusty Nail (No Sweat
)
First big obstacle was an interesting off camber shelf with an imposing drop off to the right.
I made it especially interesting by forgetting to drop into 4-Lo .. :doh:





We literally turn the corner and something call No Left Turn awaits.... The name confused me at the time but after looking at all the video's online we apparently ran this trail backwards. For us this was No Right Turn...


The break over at the top had all of us high centering and unable to climb over with-out pulling cable.






We all were winch equipped except for Kilroy (who I personally gave a hard time concerning this) so once the rest of us were up GraniteHead turned around and positioned his rig to help.
Little did we know....
Once past NLT we had a couple more shelves to drop down including Riff Raff.

Finally we made it to a dirt road that made a fairly quick exit back to the highway.



After getting back to the KOA we finished up the trip with a group dinner at the Moab Brewery.
