Along with outstanding hiking, Moab's rugged landscape provides a playground for climbers, mountain bikers, backcountry skiers, high-liners and BASE jumpers. The two National Parks (Arches and Canyonlands), Dead Horse Point State Partk, and vast amount of BLM land offer something to fit any activity level you're seeking. Pay special care to stay on trail and avoid destroying the vital cryptobiotic soil that covers the majority of the ground. Expect to see large swaths of exposed slickrock, steep cliffs, and small brush.
