We're booked at the Red Rock Lodge as well! Room 105 One down from last year.
The 877 number worked for me.. It may be seasonal, just waiting for us!

Idea #1. What about doing a night float on the Colorado River? I've heard there is a company that takes people out at night on a patoon boat and you experience the different sounds at night on the river. I think they feed you too.
Idea #2. I've heard the locals go on a night hike (during a full moon) to one of the famous arches in Arches National Park.
Any other ideas?
Peace.

That's a good idea Scott!

Yeah, I was waiting to mention it - but there is an outfit at the airport to skydive over Moab... I would LOVE to have a group willing to sign up for that!
For Kane Creek I think a little lift would be a good idea. The water isn't an issue, usually only a few inches deep, although it is crossed like 50 times. There is a possibility of brush scratches on yer paint, lots of tamarisk trees in the canyon bottom. There are a few rockpiles where a LSD or locker comes on handy, or a strap.

I got lots of pinstriping last year on Kane Creek so our less hardcore members might balk a little at that. There's also the tippy spot at the beginning where Gill tried to drive off the cliff that would be intimidating to some of the newer folks.
Elephant Hill is a long day to do it all, but as all have said out standing scenery. A easier trail with breathtaking views is Top of the World and if some of the really brave want to spice it up on the way home you can always go out via Rose Garden Hill. Dome Plateau is on the other side of the canyon from TotW and equally good if not better views, but can be easy to get off track in all the roads back there.
Bear in mind I am not proposing Kane Creek or Elephant Hill for the VX Run, but for smaller runs later in the week.
Good news! We will not be seeing 1 trillion UTV's on the trail this year...their rally is in April this year!
