Arches National Park

My favorite kind of landscape is definitely “green” but I must admit, Arches was amazing.

I stayed on public land about 15 minutes away. No amenities but easy to get in and out of.

Only one hike – to the famous Delicate Arch. I started late in the morning which I don’t recommend. It was the first of June and hot. I knew it would be, so I took as many “shade breaks” as I could. Seeing the famous arch was pretty neat. I would like to go again when it’s cooler, the light is a bit better, and I’m in better shape.

One nice feature I enjoyed photographically are the La Sal Mountains that provide a beautiful backdrop to many settings in Park.

I got a bit carried away with photos and took quite a few. Believe me, though, I left quite a few out of this post. Of the ones in the gallery, several are out of order but I’m just going to leave them.

There’s also a video at the bottom of the gallery.

UTAH. JUNE.
