Onion creek and Long Canyon would be two trails you can do solo. I suggest you go out to Fins and Hells Revenge and see if you can join a group. That is what I did and is the reason I did hells gate. BTW my Jeep is stock except for the tires and wheels.
Thanks. I will look at all the options. I thought from the pics you had a lift. What size tires are you running? I have 35x11.5's

Awesome pics. Looking to hit Moab next fall. Probably will be on different trails as I will be solo and in a stock Mojave. Looking to just take in the scenery.
You can do a decent number of things safely, and solo, with a stock Mojave. Gemini bridges is beautiful. You can do long canyon up, and Gemini back down. Schafer trail is fine either direction. 4 low and pay attention to the edge, but otherwise it’s just a dirt road. The trail to tower arch in Arches Natl. park is great.

Mohave on 35’s is VERY capable. A friend and forum member did poison spider, top of the world, fins, etc, all when still on 33’s. Just get a hitch skid.

After you do it once, you realize it’s not that hard. Just maintain momentum and don’t stop.
Especially in something as long as the gladiator. You'd have to try real hard to flop it. A 2dr tire placement is critical, a JT makes it easy.

Hurrah Pass is a nice drive/views and absolutely doable in a stock Mojave.

Very cool trip. I’m 5 weeks away from Moab with my JTOD and my wife’s JLU Willys. Our plan is Fins, Hells, Top of the world, poison spider, and hurrah pass/chicken corners. Might change the last one for onion creek, whichever is more scenic and relaxing.
Onion creek is better

There are few places on earth more scenic than the Hurrah pass and Chicken Cornes area. We had lunch at the Catacomb rocks, and spent the entire day exploring side trails there. Nice photos, awesome location

Very Nice Enjoyed the pics.. Did MOAB last Nov. (2nd time in 3 years). Met Rory, Mike, Sean = Cool personable guys; helpful asked about 5 trails (in a rental Wrangler) that we could run and not have to CAll Them.. Gave excellent advise. Canyon Land is awesome as is Dead Horse.
Dead horse might have the best view on earth

I spent 4 years looking, and looking for the bad view of Utah. 🤣 Failed miserably! Been across the entire state, and while the north central is kinda boring, the rugged beauty of Utah is just amazing. Enjoy your time there. I’ll eventually be back, hopefully dragging the gladiator behind me in a RV, with a few months to spare
