ARCHES NP

Delicate Arch is definitely magical but all Arches NP is really a beauty. So after the sunset admiring the Delicate Arch we went exploring the rest of the park. We did also some good hiking that with the heat (100+ F) became a serious achievement. This is one of the few clouds that we saw during the day. So pretty and rare to deserve a picture.

The most spectacular arch, a part the out of scale Delicate Arch, is definitely the Landscape Arch. I think it is more than 300 feet long. Really a skinny beauty ...And here a collection of the other arches. The Navajo Arch, the Sand Dune Arch, the Partition Arch, the Double O Arch, the Tunnel Arch, the Tree Arch and the Wall Arch ...If this is not enough to let make you buy now a flight ticket to Utah, here some other beauties of this park ...We spent also a couple of nights in the Devil's Field campground. We had to set the tent in two different locations in the two days we spent there, because the campground was kind of full ...

... and it was an amazing experience. Camp and hike a National Park is something I recommend to everybody. it really helps people to reconnect with the environment. With the nature. And eventually with our self. At least this is exactly what did happen to Tina and I. We simply loved it.

Love all the photos of the arches. I've been to a couple of national parks in the Western portion of the states but never did I see the natural beauty you show here. Looked like fun!!!
