WEATHER

Spring and fall in Moab are comfortably mild with cool evenings, making them ideal for outdoor adventures. Summers can be extremely hot, often exceeding 100°F (38°C), while winters are cold and can dip below 32°F (0°C). Because Moab’s desert climate changes quickly, layering is essential.

CANYON SPIRIT INSIDER’S TIP

Moab has served as the backdrop for many iconic films, including Thelma & Louise (1991), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), and Mission: Impossible II (2000).

STARGAZING

Moab is an incredible destination for stargazing, thanks to its minimal light pollution. Dead Horse Point State Park, Arches, and Canyonlands are all designated International Dark Sky Parks.
