Arches National Park, UT

Monday we left Salt Lake City and went to Arches National Park. This is just a taste of the scenery we saw on the way. Nevada was not very pretty, but Utah is gorgeous with all of the red rock mountains and formations.

This is one of the many beautiful views in Arches National Park.

This formation is called the Three Gossips.

The tall rock to the right is called the Organ and to its left is the Tower of Babel.

This is one of several balanced rocks in the park.

This is a great view of arches.

Another beautiful arch. There are over 2000 arches in the park, but only a few can be seen from the road. Some are accessible on hiking trails and the rest are in the back country.
This was a hard blog to pick pictures for. We had so many beautiful shots so we added an extra picture today. We are running out of blog space so will try to cut down the number of pictures on each blog. That is going to be very difficult to do because we still have a lot of beautiful country left to see.
