You’ll grip your seat as your Hummer crawls up Moab’s Hell’s Revenge Trail with a local guide at the wheel. Expect wild slickrock climbs, quiet moments overlooking canyons and Arches, plus a stop at real dinosaur tracks. Snacks are included — along with plenty of stories and laughs from your guide.
Honestly, I thought my stomach would drop out on the first climb up Hell’s Revenge Trail. The Hummer sort of tilted at this impossible angle — like, cartoon-level steep — and everyone just looked at each other wide-eyed while our guide, Mike, grinned like he does this before breakfast. The tires made this gritty scraping sound against the slickrock and I could smell the dry red dust through the open window. My hands were sweating but nobody wanted to admit it.
Mike kept tossing out little facts about Moab and how these petrified sand dunes used to be part of a giant desert, which is wild to imagine when you’re bouncing over them in a Hummer. He stopped at this overlook where you could see Arches in the distance — honestly, it didn’t look real. There was this weird silence for a second except for some wind and a hawk circling way below us. Then someone pointed out actual dinosaur tracks pressed into the rock (they’re just there, no fence or anything), and I tried to take a photo but my shadow got in the way. So yeah, not exactly National Geographic material.
I didn’t expect how much I’d laugh — especially when Mike handed out snacks and told us about his first time driving this trail (apparently he stalled three times). A little kid behind me kept asking if we’d see any “real” dinosaurs. The sun was starting to dip by then so everything turned gold and pink, which felt kind of unreal after all that adrenaline. I still think about that view sometimes when I’m stuck in traffic back home.
