Fins and Things – Jeep Badge of Honor Trail – A Review

Fins and Things – Jeep Badge of Honor Trail – A Review

After finally arriving in Moab, we found our townhouse, unpacked, met up with our friends for a bit. Then came the planning.

JEEP – JUST EMPTY EVERY POCKET

Most everyone had arrived a day or two before we did and we found out they had already been on an escapade that caused some distress. Have you every heard that JEEP stands for – just empty every pocket? As it turns out, they weren’t planning any trail-riding fun the next day, because they had parts to retrieve.

So Brad and I decided to explore on our own. Prior research had revealed Fins and Things to be a good starter trail. There are many reviews out there proving this trail can be done in a stock Rubicon. I have also heard it called a baby trail, compared to many others.

I suppose it is a matter of perception, which I learned a little about during this trip. Obstacles appear so much differently from inside the jeep than it looks being on the outside filming.

FINS AND THINGS REVIEW

First sight, doesn’t appear as much. Driving along the slick rock (which really isn’t slick, but is sticky – go figure), it is smooth sailing. Then just around the corner comes the fun. You drive through powdery, sand and then up hill and back down. From the inside of the jeep feels like you’re just going to topple over. But of course, that’s part of the perception deception.

I truly learned SO MUCH, and for the first Badge of Honor completion, I wasn’t let down.
