Paul and Aggie Evans |
Ten years ago Paul & Aggie Evans became the owners
of Canyonlands Campground and the (then) Shell station. Ten
years later a lot of changes have taken place. A
new store front, office, laundry, and pavilion gave the
campground a much needed face lift. Adding propane,
cabins, and wi-fi, along with the Texaco Brand completed
the new look. With over 300 trees the campground provides
a full service oasis for visitors from around the world.
The Texaco Station is more than your average C-Store. Great
gas, free air, a full selection of snacks, beverages, deli
items, sundries, RV Supplies, and a gift shop with affordable
souvenirs are just some of Canyonlands Texaco’s award
winning features. Gecko Espresso is the newest addition. Under
the direction of “Barista Tammy,” there are drinks
- hot or frozen for everyone. We offer a large variety
of gourmet teas, steamers, and Frozen Frescantes.
This is a great place to start your day and catch up on
the local “gossip.” Join our coffee club
and when you get six drinks, the seventh is free!

Running two separate businesses leaves little time to give
back to the community that has been so supportive of
us. Looking for an area that we could provide assistance
to, we were introduced to Search and Rescue. This is
a group of volunteers that gives so much of their time and
put themselves in jeopardy to help others. Our station
donates 1000 gallons of gas each year to help this wonderful
group of men and women. We are very grateful to be
living in this beautiful area and to be a part of such a
unique community.
Canyonlands Campground and Texaco is located at 555 South
Main in Moab and may be reached at 435-259-7212.
