Fins and Things Gallery

Our three stock side-by-sides take on Fins and Things and Hell’s Revenge in Moab.

We took three bone-stock recreation-utility side-by-sides to Moab’s notorious Fins and Things trail to see what they’re made of. It was the perfect sampler plate of Moab’s famous red rocks and tough wheeling, and an opportunity to see whether stock rigs are capable of hard wheeling. The short answer is a very emphatic yes. Stick around and check out these shots of a 2022 Can-Am Commander XT-P, a 2021 Polaris General XP 1000 Trailhead Edition, and a 2022 Yamaha Wolverine RMAX2 1000 Sport tackling big rocks, steep climbs, and nasty descents.
