Behind the Rocks mapped 4WD approach, BLM road D1684, Moab, UT
About this trail
Behind the Rocks is a demanding four-wheel-drive route south of Moab, known for sandstone ledges, steep descents and obstacles such as High Dive, Upchuck and White Knuckle Hill. It is suited to experienced drivers with appropriately equipped vehicles, recovery supplies and another prepared vehicle along. The pin marks the approximate start published by the permitted trail organizer, on a BLM-mapped open motorized road. It is not a parking guarantee or a complete navigation track. Stay on designated routes and outside the adjacent Behind the Rocks Wilderness Study Area, where motorized travel is not allowed. Check current BLM notices, weather and event restrictions before traveling. The original photograph is historical and does not establish current obstacle conditions.
