Think we could do fins and hell in the same day with out it being overload?

Reminder: I still have camp spot T-7 held if anyone needs it.

My disclaimer is that I haven't' done 100% of the Fins and Things trail. We went on the south half and part of it on the north side of the road. Lots of up and down climbs. It's has similar fatures to the Hell's Revenge trail which you are planning on doing. You could probably knock both trails out in one day.

The Top of the World trail wasn't really challenging with the hardest part being some rock ledges/steps. That's where I bent my tie rod up there. Lots of steps towards the top. Not that great of a trail per se, but the end is awesome. That's still my favorite place of everything I've seen in Moab.

Also look at the Long Canyon trail. It's a good connector out to Canyonlands or Dead Horse SP. Super easy trail with some neat view spots and you get to drive under a huge boulder.

I have just me at my site at this time. The hippy is part of the Avis camp... All my dirty hippy friends live in NM.

Avis is your sister and her friend sleeping in your tent?

Moab already has plenty of dirty hippies. You don't need to haul any in from Flagstaff.

Still need a tire and to put in a CB.

We may have picked up one more Dodge and a "dancer". You boys remember ryan and kyle from AO? Spent some time with them this weekend and Kyle wants to come along. Not sure its going to happen but you just never know... When I left the bar he was working on ways to get 39's under his truck with no lift... :))

buddy from work gave me some recomendations on places to eat.

Moab Brewery – burgers, sandwiches, salads, and local microbrews at good prices. (We usually eat here 2-3 times per visit, this is my favorite, and the beers are excellent!)
Pasta Jay’s - excellent Italian dishes of all sorts and wood fired pizzas. A little more expensive.
Eddie McStiff’s – bar food with a fun atmosphere. Parking lot is usually packed after about 7pm.
Z’s - all u can eat pizza & salad bar like Pizza Huts used to have, but with much better pizza.
