Sure is! I'm glad I took the time to go up. It's one of the more memorable places that I've taken the Xterra. MOAB Rocks!

Yeah, I've got a whole shopping bag full of photos from Moab. Someday I'll work through them all and scan the good ones. Great memories though.

Maob, is definitely one of the places I am going next year, job or no job! It was fun just driving White Rim for the view! But now I want to try something much more challenging at Moab!

Awesome pics of Lions Back on your site! So do you have the auto or manual trans? If Auto, did you have to brake hard? I was wondering about how the ABS worked on the steep section coming down? Any spinning going up? Did you have to get a little momentum going up or just crawl?

That hill has always scared the sh*t out of me! I saw the blazer video where they went off the side (they lived) and decided I wanted to do that hill

I don't read the boards much but your pics are the first ones I've every seen of an X or Fronteir going up that hill!

I believe Nissan's turn off the ABS under 7-10 mph.

From your owners manual

"The anti-lock brake system does not operate at speeds below 3 to 6 MPH (5 to 10 km/h). (The speeds vary according to road conditions.)"

I've got a manual tranny. I was braking the entire way down. This "hill" is very steep in sections. Slick Rock is some amazing stuff. It seems to work like that sticky flypaper but for tires - tons of traction. My tires chirped a bit while going up the very steep bottom part but other than that I was good to go.

I think XOC was the first "official" Xterra to climb Lion's Back. I've wanted to try it ever since I saw his photos.

Highly recommended. Just steer straight!

Yup, Moab is the best

I’ve been up/down Lions at least 3 times in the last 2 years and I recall about a half dozen or so X's + logan's frontier running it at GONE all of them auto's but Snoopy.

You don’t need that much momentum going up and can safely stop at a couple of spots.

Descending is a bit more interesting, with a auto you kind of control slide more on the bottom section

BTW for those interested some of us will be visiting Moab on the "B" side after GOX3, this large fin is close to town and can be done in <15minutes if there is no waiting after you pay the man his $5.
