Gene Ferris is the Big Saturday trail leader for Porcupine Rim. A well deserved honor. This is another shot along the early part of the trail. The Canyon Walls are very steep near Negro Bill Canyon. The trail parallels and affords many breathtaking views into Negro Bill.
Some spectacular views open up at the higher elevations.
This one is shot to the west, back toward Moab. Moab's elevation is about 4,025 feet while Porcupine Rim reaches nearly 6,800 feet in the areas along the trail. This is the whole reason some people do the trail. A picture of your 4X4 out on that rock on a sunny day like today is priceless. Be very, very careful as you drive out to the edge.
