Moab History: Jeep Week
In the late 1960s, Moab faced economic challenges due to the decline in uranium mining. To boost tourism, the Moab Chamber of Commerce initiated the Easter Jeep Safari in 1967, which has since evolved into a major nine-day event. The Red Rock 4 Wheelers, an off-road enthusiast group founded by George Shultz, took over the event's management as it grew. The group, now with over 2,000 members, collaborates with the Bureau of Land Management for trail maintenance. A tradition of awarding jackets to dedicated members began in 1987, with Larry Long being a notable recipient.
