Widow Maker is a 1.3-mile-long optional spur route on the north end of the Metal Masher trail in Moab, Utah. The main feature of this spur is a steep and slick 10-foot vertical waterfall climb with no bypass. This difficult and technical obstacle requires a high degree of skill and precision to navigate successfully. The wall is known as "Widow Maker" because of the difficulty of getting over it and the high potential for rollover. This trail is not recommended for novice drivers or those with less capable vehicles. Additionally, short-wheelbase vehicles will find this obstacle exceptionally difficult to conquer. Large tires, dual lockers, plenty of horsepower, and a longer wheelbase will help you immensely.
