Moab, Utah: Desert Hikes when it's 100 Degrees!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We took the kids to the desert… in July. In this episode, we head to Moab, Utah, to explore Arches National Park during the peak of summer heat. We’ll share what it’s like to watch the sunrise from North Window, how we kept cool with cold cave hideouts and Camelbaks, and why Sand Dune Arch might be your new favorite sandbox.
As always, Nash shares his favorite sights and hikes , Otis delivers some truly spiky Would You Rathers, and we uncover the real reason we ditched the camper van for a hotel.
