“Then we arrived in Moab.
“Suddenly, our vacation doldrums evaporated.
“So many different adventures are offered from this small desert town that you could try something new every day for a week. Mountain biking, whitewater, Jeeps, ATVs and horseback rides — every storefront promises a unique thrill.”
