Moab Tour Company provided us with 2 Universal Terrain Vehicles for our morning tour.
We cruised noisily around the streets, passing our Motel at a sedate 15 miles an hour as per local ordinance.
Our group led by Tim, an experienced guide made its way over the crazy rocky terraine. This area boasts a variety sharp rocky outcrops featuring various " Hell Based " titles including Hells revenge, Hells gate and many more hair raising rides.
A water stop at the Colorado River overlook.
After a few hours of deafening engines and bone rattling decents, we drove back to the tour office.
Ben & Ian decided to climb to the delicate arch, the famous stunning feature of Arches National Park.
Ben & Ian battled the 40 degree heat, 1.6 miles each way to capture these images at the Arch.
Hollie & I visited the shops and stopped at Spoke, a Cycle themed bar on Main Street.
Next stop a relaxing evening at Canyonlands Day & Night River cruise,
First an all you can eat ranch style buffet.
Then an informative and relaxing cruise along the river, culminating in a light show against the ancient rock faces.
Those of us who didn't snooze on the boat ( 50% ) .. we all returned to the motel for a well earned sleep.
Goodnight dear reader from sporty Moab x
