What are some things to do in the Moab area when it is raining? Indoor recreation? Quarky places? etc.

Bouldering at Lions Park (fake rock for when you need to climb too soon), Library, Aquatic Center, Rock Shop

If you’re lucky enough to catch a good storm, the hiking is surreal.

Just a heads up to all coming in from out of the region - Moab area  saw a significant amount of rain and much rock and ground is still wet. Be prudent and patient. If the soil is still wet, don’t climb!

If it's too wet to climb but not soaking wet go climb a bolt ladder

Hunt down Joe here and challenge him to a karaoke battle. Bring your A game.

Seriously. His sister is a river guide there, too.

No. Don't go climb a bolt ladder. Stay off the rock. Take some of these other excellent suggestions.

There’s some brewery’s in town if you drink. Polygamy Porter. Bring a six pack home to the wives.

Check out Indian Creek.  The walls get way less crowded after storms
