What to do continued
Other Activities
The Moab area just has so many things to do I can’t list them all. Nor have we done many of them.
As one can imagine, water sports on the Colorado River are popular. Upstream from the bridge, the water is generally pretty smooth so power boats take passengers up stream to view the canyon from the river. Raft companies do “easy” trips on the Fisher Tower section of the river. More hard core rafters run Westwater and Cataract Canyons.
Besides the climbers one can see at Wall Street along UT 279, you may also see them elsewhere, as along the Kane Springs road around Amasa Back. Across from Big Bend CG up UT 128 is an area specifically designated for bouldering, a good place to start for those just beginning the whole climbing adventure.
The airport has scenic flights and skydiving. :E There’s also a company with Hot Air Balloon rides.
