Moab: South Main Street
Moab has served as a trading and supply town in eastern Utah since the late 19th century. South Main Street, part of U.S. Route 191, is the town’s principal commercial corridor, lined with shops, restaurants and services for a community shaped by outdoor travel. Moab stands on the Colorado Plateau near the Colorado River, amid the red-sandstone country of southeastern Utah. It is a practical base for Arches and Canyonlands national parks, as well as surrounding Bureau of Land Management lands. Since 1967, the annual Easter Jeep Safari has brought four-wheel-drive enthusiasts to town, underlining Moab’s long association with off-road recreation and desert routes.

Few cities in Utah have a history as closely tied to uranium mining as Moab. Set beside the Colorado River on the Colorado Plateau, it became a centre of the 1950s uranium boom and retains traces of that frontier-era identity. Arches National Park lies just north of town, while Canyonlands National Park extends across rugged river-carved country to the southwest. Moab is also internationally known for mountain biking, four-wheel-drive routes and rafting on the Colorado River, drawing travellers into a landscape of sandstone cliffs, mesas and deep canyons.

Utah has functioned as a frontier region within the United States since the mid-19th century. Its terrain spans the Great Basin, the Wasatch Range and the Colorado Plateau, where red-rock canyons and high desert occupy much of the south and east. The Great Salt Lake is the state’s defining inland water body, while the Colorado River has carved some of its most dramatic canyon country. Salt Lake City grew from the 1847 settlement of Mormon pioneers, and Utah entered the Union in 1896. Five national parks, including Zion, Arches and Bryce Canyon, reflect the extraordinary variety of its protected landscapes. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Utah.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
