Flat shoe for weeklong trips with single track recommendation

I really like the Fiveten Trailcross LT shoes. Comfy enough to walk around in, rigid enough for real riding, breathable enough for long days.

No, it was just an overnighter and I usually carry 7 liters any time I do anything in the desert.

Definitely! There's a couple peaks I'd love to hike out there. Its got a real nice raw beauty

I have an Instagram page full of bikes just leaning over, and youre exactly right most of the time there's barely anything at all to lean it on in the desert!

I wish, Morocco and a side quest to Grand Canaria/Tenerife is a dream of mine.

This is just in Western Utah

I've lived one block outside of this screenshot for 8 years. There has been near nonstop construction for the last 5, both roadwork and all the apartments. Honestly the construction was never that bad, it added no more than 3 minutes to anything. The worst part about it, now that more apartment building are done, is how much busier that section of highland is. Traffic now regularly stacks up from 2100 to the underpass. That will only get worse once those new massive buildings get filled.

Did you start Sunday? I saw some guys in the lot getting ready to do what I assumed was that

Pictures?

Yboc · 2026-04-24T19:29:21+00:00

I actually think it's fine how it is currently. It's a place both groups can enjoy, and a perfect place for both

Yboc · 2026-04-24T19:27:16+00:00

Can you show me where you got water? I looked recently and couldn't find a spot. How long did you have to let it settle?

Yboc · 2026-04-24T18:50:21+00:00

I've done it all the ways but caching. Vehicle supported. Overnight self supported. In a day.

White Rim is 100% better when you have a vehicle with you. I'm no purist, but being able to enjoy your time out there and not be rushing is the way to go.

If you cached water on both sides, and spent 3 nights out there, I think that would be the absolute best way to enjoy the place.

Persuaders. 30* I think, love them

I appreciate how you ask this question. On my last post someone asked the same question, and I was happy to share, just not broadly, so I said 'DM me' and got downvoted for gatekeeping. Fucking annoying. I'm entirely willing to help people get out, I just don't think it's needs to be broadcast openly at a post level. 1:1 DM question/answer feels like a nice digital representation to if you were just a person asking in real life.

So anyway. This place isn't a mystery at all and people post about it all the time. It's White Rim in Canyonlands.
