Climbing into Fall - Cliffs & Canyons of Moab, UT Offer Perfect Socially Distanced Autumn Escape

MOAB, Utah - Sept. 1, 2020 - PRLog -- America's red rock playground in Moab, Utah, offers one challenge after another. This region is widely regarded as one of the best rock climbing and canyoneering destinations in the world. These are two pursuits often cited for helping people overcome their fears and meet other challenges in their lives.

"When people cluster at the bottom of a canyon wall waiting to climb, they're already moving themselves mentally and emotionally out of their comfort zones," says Cort Wright, General Manager of the Moab Adventure Center (www.moabadventurecenter.com/) in Moab.

Conquering a canyon is a sure bet for a small group and team-building activity, Wright explains why.

·        First, new challenges like rock climbing have amazing potential to build self-confidence and bring people closer together.

·        Second, when climbing, you have to do things that are outside of your comfort zone. When you're all alone up there on the canyon wall, no one is next to you telling you what to do. You have to make decisions for yourself and by yourself. This process of making it to the top is all on your own.

·        Third, rock climbing is a great bonding experience. Maneuvering up a rock face is a personal challenge. Families, for example, get out of a child's way – and head -- and let them figure it out for themselves. Children – and adults -- come off the rock and feel so proud of themselves.

Fall is the perfect time to escape the heat and enjoy the usually dry climate. Rock climbing and canyoneering (https://www.moabadventurecenter.com/climbing-canyoneering) are offered here through November. Sessions are approximately five hours, morning or afternoon. All guides are trained and certified by the Association for Canyoneering Education (ACE). They have passed every advanced canyoneering and rescue course ACE has and have customized their knowledge to fit the needs of Moab Adventure Center guests and participants.
