That is funny. We paid for the food. It was 450. 00 a person for 6 nights of lodging and food. We did all the maid service! I have one photo of her after the ride. She has all the good one's of her bruises. You can kinda see one on her arm here. And her knee's were pretty bad too.

I should mention one of the guys who was with us has ms. He rides better then he walks. This trip was for him semce he might not be ableto do it again. The day after we finished he was in a lot of pain. He was amazing an machine. he inspired me to keep going on that trip even when i wanted to quite! He is the one at the bottom of the picture. the guy on the top bunk is my husband.

oh, i see. I was trying to understand how it works. You pay and they keep it stocked.

your friend doesn't look like a happy camper. Is she still speaking to you?

WOW!!! such an epic trip for all of you! Thank you for the story and the pics...I have been wondering what it might be like, sounds like training is important! Would you recommend it for just 2 people...or a group (including a doctor...hehe) would be better?

We have been talking about a tour for our honeymoon (it is gonna be a anniversary trip if we don't stop spending money on bike stuff and home improvements) This looks like a challenge to embark upon!

....haha...that pic of you friend is priceless...she does NOT look like a happy camper Hope for you she does not find this site!

Amazing trip--thanks for sharing the story and the photos with us. I wonder whether you feel a trip like this changed you in any way?

Durango to Moab Hut to Hut

Is this the Durango to Moab hut to hut? The pictures are awesome!

I've always wanted to do that ride. Maybe in the next couple of years - it is close to us so easily doable for us.
