Images of Arches National Park



I visted Arches National Park in September, 1992, and found it to have many interesting formations. I returned in December, 1997, and saw snow on the arches.

Skyline Arch

Skyline Arch stands out on the drive to the far end of the park, this arch recently had a significant piece break away to expand the opening.
Landscape Arch

Landscape Arch is the largest natural rock archway in the world, spanning 291 feet.
The Windows

The Windows are a pair of arches that, in my opinion, look like spectacles.
Double Arch

Double Arch is an interesting spot. Two arches formed, joining a single post to a rocky knoll. (This formation was seen at the beginning of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.


Devils Garden in Snow

These rocks are red, in sunlight. Here, they are covered with snow.
Landscape Arch

Landscape Arch is one of the longest arches in the world. Here, it is snowing.
Skyline Arch

This arch is visible for miles. Even in snow.
Turret Arch

This arch is in the Windows area. Snow falling hard made some pictures difficult.
South Window

Desite the snow and slippery conditions, I made it to the South Window.
Double Arch

The snow falling on Double Arch is a double treat.
Fins

Coming back the next day, it was sunny and cool. These fins are an example of the erosion of the rocks.
Landscape Arch

In sunlight, Landscape Arch looks much different.
Skyline Arch

Skyline Arch is still impressive, even when viewed from a distance.
Double Arch

Of course, nothing compares to Double Arch. That's why it was used in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
The Windows

The Windows area covered in snow.
