Arches
National Park
Big Rocks
We didn't get to spend a lot of time in Arches when last
here in 2007. We did better this time, tackling the Four
Wheel Drive Road,
hiking around Balanced Rock and out to the Delicate Arch viewpoint (the
hike to the arch itself will have to wait for another day,
or perhaps another full moon), and the ranger-led hike into the Fiery
Furnace. And yeah, we'll be back next time. I like this park.


Rays of sunshine over the Windows Section of the park.


We didn't hike all the way out to Delicate Arch...at least
not this time.
We settled for the Delicate Arch viewpoint on the other side of this
canyon.

The arch is nowhere near as big as it looks on the cover of
the park brochure.
