| no partners | | On our first day in Arches, we also visited the Balanced Rock (not much of a hike; just a stroll around the rock), which offered great views in the near distance to the "windows" section and the La Sal Mountains beyond.
From the Balanced Rock, we drove over to the Windows, past the Garden of Eden, to the most popular area of the park. It's popular because it offers several huge arches--all within a very short distance: North and South Windows, Turret Arch, and Double Arch.
We went over to Double Arch on day one, and were hoping to catch the Windows and Turret Arch at sunrise the next day. It was raining and cloudy the next morning, so not as spectacular on the photo front, but still amazing. The photoset contains photos from both days.
An amazing area. It was busy during the offseason when we were there. I'm sure it's an absolute zoo in the spring/summer season. |
