Arches National Park

Hey there! Looks like it's time to update this humble blog! As mentioned in our last post, Charlotte and I were fortunate to spend a full day exploring Arches National Park. We covered lots of ground on an incredible hike. Some spots along the trail helped us to test our fear of heights. For example, Charlotte and I made it to the notch you see above this arch before I reached my limit. 

Charlotte, on the other hand, is still seeking her limit!

However, even the spots we visited on terra firma provided some amazing scenery. Here are just a few photos we captured!

Beyond carving arches and dramatic pillars, the wind and water have etched amazing features into the rock walls (some which are perfectly Charlotte-sized)!

Anyway, we were pretty tired after our day of hiking. However, we added a short, 3-mile slickrock hike so that we could see some petroglyphs (rock art) and the park's most famous sight, Delicate Arch. It was worth it!

Our time in Arches was great! In our next post, we'll briefly share some highlights from our time in Canyonlands National Park, Arches' less-visited neighbor. Until then, have a terrific week!
