Arches National Park, Moab, UT

Official website: Arches National Park

Visit Details: June 2004, Part of my cross-country roadtrip.

This National Park was very impressive. So many natural arches all in one place. The main trails are mostly easy walks that will take you to some of the largest, most frequented, and most stunning arches. I have pictures from 3 of the walks/hikes I did in the park down below.

Also, the drive into the park before you even get onto any of the designated trails is quite beautiful with a lot to see and some awesome rock formations and overlooks, as well as, a few arches.

There are some really awesome landscapes/vistas to be seen, and keep an eye out for the "three sisters", "balancing rock" and "delicate arch" along the way.

I only took a small number of photos on these short trails. There's a photo of Turret Arch and one of North Window Arch.

Also a very short walk with the main draw being, yes, you guest it... the Double Arch formation! ;-)

This was by far the most fun trail I did. You can just take a short walk out to Landscape Arch and back if you don't want to do the whole trail. Landscape are is one of the most impressive in the entire park. If you do decide to do the whole trail, don't wear your dancing shoes as you will be scrambling over all kinds of rock formations and "fins".
