A historic day at Sand Flats Recreation Area this Easter as the sounds made by birds and the wind replaced motorized vehicles for the first time in decades. This aural environment is likely to continue to be the norm around Moab as the Southeast Utah Health Department plans to extend their order restricting nonessential visitation.
