Moab Adventure Center Suggests Winter Activity In Utah's Arches and Canyonlands

MOAB, Utah - Feb. 12, 2020 - PRLog -- The cooler temperatures of winter signal an eagerness for adventure in the high-desert, red-rock playground of Moab, Utah. By early March the folks here will herald spring, open campgrounds, assess the winter snowpack and predict how it will influence river rafting come summer.

This recreation hub welcomes visitors during the quiet weeks remaining before the bustle begins. In fact, the Moab Adventure Center, open year-round, has a check list of preferred activities during these quiet weeks.

Local experts recommend first visiting the newly opened Moab Giants Dinosaur Park & Tracks (interactive) Museum. A Dinosaur Discovery Tour (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/moab-giants-dinosaur-park-museum) reveals Moab as the original Jurassic park. Then the endless expanse comprised of Arches National Park (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/arches-national-park-tours) and Canyonlands National Park invites the curious to ponder where those ancient creatures might have ambled and foraged.

Following are suggestions on how to step into the Jurassic period (up to nearly 200 million years ago) while in Moab in 2020.

-Moab 4x4 Hummer Tours (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/moab-hummer-tours) range from two to four hours and even include a Sunset Safari Hummer Tour with hors d'oeuvres.
