Done in a Day: Moab

Done In A Day Moab

Are you a hiker visiting Moab? Then check out Done in a Day Moab, The Ten Premier Hikes. As the title suggests, Done in a Day Moab explains precisely where to invest your limited hiking time to enjoy the greatest possible scenic reward.

All ten hikes are boot-tested, certified spectacular by the Opinionated Hikers, Kathy and Craig Copeland, who've written guidebooks on many of the world's most spectacular wild lands including Hiking From Here to WOW: Utah Canyon Country.

With Done in a Day Moab as your guide, you can choose an easy, vigorous or challenging hike, start your adventure within a short drive of town, witness the wonder of canyon country, and be back in Moab that evening for a hot shower, great meal, and soft bed.

Here's an excerpt from Done in a Day Moab:

"Until it's possible to vacation on distant planets, there's always Canyonlands National Park, a land as other-worldly as it gets without requiring a space suit to step out of your vehicle.

"Several hikes in Done in a Day Moab penetrate the exotic Needles District of the park where you'll find a concentration of fantastic redrock formations: pinnacles, fins, domes, hamburger buns, mushrooms, flying saucers.

"Though the Needles are solid rock, their incomprehensible complexity gives the appearance of movement, vibration. Following the route descriptions in Done in a Day Moab, your eyes will dart from one implausible shape to the next. You'll see how each intricate detail flows seamlessly into another. You'll realize you're witnessing earth's living drama. It's a slower episode than a waterfall, a storm, or a volcanic eruption, but equally dynamic.

"Gazing at the Needles is like watching a jazz dance troupe writhing on stage: it's impossible to see every nuance, yet you try, because it's all so fascinating."
