Know before you go

  • Lazy and EZ are mapped as one-way in OSM, and this route rides them that way. Follow the trail signs if they say otherwise.
  • Deadman's Ridge has a few rocky moves. Killer B, nearby, is BLM's trail for 'only the most gonzo', and this route stays off it.
  • Crosses the paved Moab Canyon Pathway a few times. Watch for road riders.
  • No shade at all. Carry more water than you think.

Ride smart

  • Water: plan on about 1.5 L for this ride. There's none on the trail.
  • Signal is spotty. Tell someone your route and your time back.
  • Emergency: call 911 and say "Lazy Daze ride, parked at Moab Brands (Bar M) Trailhead, Moab, Utah", plus the coordinates from Locate me.
  • Wildlife: give horses, burros and anything with horns room, and never feed them.
  • Stay on trail. Desert crust and mountain soil take decades to heal.
