I feel that the 3 days I’ve spent in Moab won’t be enough. I think I’ll try and come back in the spring when the weather is a little cooler. It’s been in the high 90′s with no break. I haven’t had enough time to explore as much as I’d like, especially the mountain biking trails. I’m going to ride the Slickrock trail tomorrow, but there are countless others to choose from.
The scenery here is quite different than the other places I’ve seen. The sandstone is a burnt orange red that is like no other soil color i’ve seen. The soil is has a very distinct and saturated look and the cliffs only exaggerate the color into a vividness that is breathtaking.
The colorado river which passes near Moab. I'm camped not far from here.
