Why Moab?

Moab is the adventure bachelor party. Two national parks, world-class mountain biking, whitewater rafting, and off-road trails that'll rattle your teeth. The nightlife is limited — this isn't a bar-crawl town — but the stargazing, the campfires, and the sheer scale of the landscape make up for it.
