Moab this past weekend - creeping through Chicken Corners [video]

[the poacher]

What a blast! This was my first time in Moab and my second time offroading ever. The weather was perfect and there only a few other vehicles on the trail. Had the whole place to ourselves most of the day. The ice and snow next to the edge was fun.

That is such a fun trail, though I have never done it in the wet/snow. Any exciting moments with the slippery conditions?
Nicely done by the way.

Because there aren't really any steep or off-camber sections the snow and ice didn't introduce any risk but I was still super cautious near the end.

OK, The views were great but let's be honest...There was NOTHING tough about that trail. Maybe I'm just used to real 'Jeep trails' but that was nothing but a Sunday drive through beautiful country...No offense to anyone but let's see some Bronco's on tough trails!

It's a great first experience trail. No obstacles, but you learn that you have to pay attention to how you're positioning your wheels in several spots. Well traveled in case you encounter a problem or break down. Also good for vehicles without lift or lockers. My suggestion to the OP was to sign up for the Moab OffRoadeo, and plan for at least a few days to try this, and more challenging, trails.
And yes--it's beautiful country.

Did you by chance go over Hurrah Pass? We stayed at the Base Camp adventure lodge when we went to the OFFRoadeo. Did not realize that every day was going to be an offroad adventure just to leave camp.

Was there last fall, Experience of a lifetime. Look forward to doing it again. I bet the ice and snow add so much more to the thrill of dangling over death.

Yes.
In fact Hurrah Pass appears to be the start of the Chicken Corners trail.
