Moab Police Patrol Car Parked Beneath Sandstone Cliffs

Moab, Utah, sits in Grand County along the Colorado River, encircled by red sandstone formations that draw travelers to nearby Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. The Moab City Police Department serves a town of roughly 5,300 year-round residents, a number that climbs considerably during peak tourist seasons. The cliffs rising above town belong to the Entrada and Navajo sandstone formations common across the region, layered over millions of years and cut through by erosion into the cliffs and fins seen throughout the area.
