Arches National Park

Balanced Rock

Windows Trail at Sunset

Landscape Arch

Arches Park has definitely lived up to the hype. The red rocks scenery is incredible. Last night we went in to the park at about 7pm and our first stop was Balanced Rock. It's a boulder about 55 ft high sitting on top of a stone column. It's an odd and amazing sight. We then went on to the Windows trail and saw Turret Arch and Windows Arches. A couple of interesting notes. I told Kim my adventure would not be complete until we saw some wildlife and just about that time a jackrabbit hopped out of the underbrush right in front of us. Second, I found a set of car keys on the trail that winds behind windows. I picked them up and we stumbled upon the owner in the parking lot - lucky for him. We stayed for the sunset at Windows and saw the colors of the red rocks really come alive. This morning we got up early and hit the Devil's Garden trail. The weather was fantastic (high 70's and not a cloud in the sky) and the we saw more excellent sights. The highlight was Landscape Arch which you can see above.
