Daves Gully is short and scary. A real roller coaster gully trail dipping 6-8ft with near vertical walls, it looks like a Snowboard halfpipe (but for the narrow transition).
You need a fair amount of skill to ride this trail properly however you can take the chicken run and ride down the gully - but where's the fun in that?
You can see by the video that I was pretty tentative on my first run, I would have ridden it again with far more conviction was it not for the crazy ladder bridge that crossed the gully about 2/3 of the way through and 6ft above the floor. It scared the bejesus out of me just walking over it.
The trail starts at the intersection of Tinonee Rd, Sweet As, Chads Route, Green Bottle/Son of Skull and ends not long into Moab.
If gullies and heights are your thing then Daves Gully is DEFINITELY worth a blast.
