The weather has really improved during the past couple of weeks.  Daytime temperatures are now regularly in the 60s but the nights are still cool in the 30s and 40s.  Even though it doesn’t feel extremely warm yet make sure to wear plenty of sunblock. 

When visiting Arches and Canyonlands National Parks you’ll generally be between 5000 feet and 7000 feet in elevation.  With the Sun getting higher in the sky every day and the thinner atmosphere at these altitudes you can get sunburned in as little as 15 minutes.

The colors in the red rock scenery are exceptionally beautiful this time of year.  If you can catch sunrise or sunset the lower angle of the sun will make for truly exceptional photographs.  As we get closer to summertime and the sun moves up higher in the sky photos tend to wash out during the middle of the day.  You can still take great pictures with that beautiful clear blue sky in the background.  But the colors in the red rocks are not quite as vivid compared to when you have that lower angle of the sun earlier in the season.

There are many different ways to get to the condo in Moab.  While most people drive and bring their mountain bikes and other recreational assets, the Moab Airport is very convenient.  Planes connect directly to Salt Lake City and sometimes Denver or Phoenix.  Rental cars are generally available at the little airport.  While flying might seem expensive it can save a lot of travel time if you’re coming from California or other places on the West Coast.  And we all know time is money…
