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.

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.
