    Hi - Appreciate your video.
    My brother moved to the USA many years ago. After living in Los Angeles for several years - he ended up being a bus driver doing tours out of Las Vegas into Utah and Colorado. He passed away some years ago - but your video shows what he and his tourists saw on his bus trips into Utah. He loved the desert plus the States he toured. Through your video - I can see why. Thanks very much.

Interesting history too. Love Island in the Sky and Needles. I stay at Willow Flats if available and Squaw Flat. No internet. Gorgeous night sky.

    My wife and i just spent a week here for our 25th anniversary. We've never been but we'll definitely return. We stayed outdoors most of the time. So much to do and explore. The town kind of reminded us of a moredown to earth Sedona. Most stores are within walking distance. You can hike for miles here. You definitely need to see the night sky. Between 10 and 2 is the dark skies,in late May anyway.
    Unfortunately, one of our tour guides told us he couldn't find a decent house for under 300k now. He said about 7 people share a house and split expenses. I guess thats the down side of a growing town or city.

    I was there in April for the first time. Other than some very light drizzle one day, the weather was perfection. Stayed at a small campground just south of town across the county line. Rented Jeeps for a couple days, ran Hells Revenge, and Fins N Things one day, then explored Gemini Bridges, Long Canyon Road, and Onion Creek another day. Spent most of a day wandering around Arches NP. Took the Canyonlands By Night boat tour. And just spent time in the town.
    I hope I can come back someday. It's such a beautiful area and SO much different than anything I've seen or like the very ordinary place I live.

    Thanks for the virtual visit to Moab! As others have mentioned, it's not quite the "small town" that it used to be. At 2:33 you missed Wilson Arch on the right, sort of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it spot, it's a very easy walk-up from that parking area. The Hole in the Rock may be a "tourist trap", but it's very much worth a visit if only to see the Harry the stuffed donkey, I'm looking forward to your drive on UT128--as you say, is has some of the most iconic western scenery you'll ever see. Happy trails!

    There's nothing quite like the freedom and adventure of the open road in places like this in America. Some of my family in the UK say they don't have any reason to come here and I think its really unfortunate for them thinking like that, they are missing out on these natural wonders. I've driven through parts of the South West US including in Page Arizona, Zion in Utah and parts of route 66. I can say that there is nothing comparable in Europe like this, the landscape is stunning and in places other worldly.
    I have yet to experience the majestic scenery in other states like Montana and Wyoming (home of Yellowstone), that's next on my list!

      In 1977. I drove my 5,000 pound Thunderbird across it. Very strange and a little unnerving to see a bridge shift and wiggle as you drive across it. I Frequently walk across the Ben Franklin Bridge to Philadelphia. When a commuter train crosses it underneath the walkway you don’t feel hardly anything. It was a tragedy that the Dewey burned down.

    Church Rock Utah has a ground elevation of 5,862 ft. above sea level. It is a level sediment formation. Significance: It can be argued that this area was covered by an ocean millions of years ago in order to make this rock formation.
