Mi Vida Mine Tour and Dinner at Sunset Grill

Join the Moab Museum for a rare, behind-the-scenes journey into the legendary Mi Vida Mine, the strike that transformed Moab into the “Uranium Capital of the World.” Led by Mark Steen, son of famed prospector Charlie Steen, this immersive experience offers unparalleled insight into the boomtown days that reshaped the region.

Your day begins with a guided caravan from the Moab Museum into Lisbon Valley, where Mark will share stories, photographs, and first-hand history at the Mi Vida site itself. Enjoy lunch on-site (BYO), then return to Moab for a private tour of the Museum’s “U92: Moab’s Uranium Legacy” exhibition—connecting the mine’s legacy to artifacts, images, and personal stories.

The experience concludes in true Moab style: dinner at the Sunset Grill, perched above town in Charlie Steen’s former mansion, with sweeping red rock views as the sun sets.

A rare chance to walk in the footsteps of Moab’s most famous miner—don’t miss it.
