So I took today off and circled the Tintic Mountains (again). Staging at Little Moab, I rode just about every trail (and side trail) in/around that mountain.

Found a little trail that cut through a little-used canyon, did some damage (ripped up my arm pretty good) to my ATV by ripping the cargo bag completely off, rendering it trash.

A few photos from today:

It's unreal how lush this area is, considering its desolate location in the desert west of Utah County.

You can see in the first couple photos where no bungees hold my cargo bag on, but in the last photos, it had to be held on with bungee cords. Those trees were so low, it caught me in the arm (ripped it up pretty well), then stabbed completely through my bag (ripping a massive hole), before tearing it completely off the machine.

..well, it was time for a new bag.
