The mushroom at Bartlett Wash, Moab, UT
|
By Yann aka Quasimoto on 1/9/2007  MOAB, yet again - I guess this place is as everyone describes.... I wish I was jumping off that but no, it was some very skilled dude doing that the day we were there. I think his name was "BOOM BOOM" from Boulder, CO. |

Moab huck-fest
|
By Steve Outing on 11/6/2006  This was a huck-fest that I happened upon last week at Moab's Bartlett Wash. Earlier I posted another photo, but thought I'd post this since it gives a better indication of what the scene looked like, and the run-out after the riders dropped off the Mushroom Rock cliff. |
My first flush at Moab's Toilet Bowl
|
By Steve Outing on 10/30/2006 on Steve Outing's blog A friend took this short video of my first-ever attempt at riding the "Toilet Bowl" near Moab, Utah. This is a cool and fun feature at Bartlett Wash -- a big cleavage-like depression in the slickrock (hence the feature's alternative nickname, "Dolly Parton") that's unnervingly steep, but rideable. |

By Steve Outing on 10/30/2006  While at Bartlett Wash the other day, I happened upon an unofficial huck-fest going at at the much-photographed "Mushroom Rock." |
Down the Toilet Bowl
|
By Steve Outing on 10/30/2006  This guy had the right technique for getting down the "Toilet Bowl" (aka, "Dolly Parton") at Bartlett Wash, near Moab, Utah. He told me it took him 4 years of coming to Bartlett to get up the nerve to do it the first time. |

The infamous Toilet Bowl (Moab)
|
By Steve Outing on 10/30/2006  This fun-looking feature is called the Toilet Bowl (and sometimes is called Dolly Parton, for its "cleavage" qualities) at Bartlett Wash near Moab, Utah. I experienced being flushed by this thing. |
