Why I want to go to this place — 3 months ago
When I was a teenager, I watched a documentary on television about Arches National Park. I have wanted to go since! It looks so beautiful, like nothing else on the planet.

Though Arches is beautiful 365/24/7, it comes alive at sunrise and sunset. The western sun so eloquently shows off all of the subtleties of Arches’ grandeur and beauty.

Although the hike to Delicate Arch is a little longer than others in the park, it is nowhere near as crowded, and well worth it! The other hike that I would recommend is the one to Landscape Arch. The Windows area was very crowded when we went so we didn’t spend much time there.

When I was young my Dad (R7?) used to lead field trips through the various National Parks in Southern Utah and surrounding areas. I can remember when I was in elementary school looking forward to the trips. I thought that it was so cool how he would take me along with him.
Arches was always one of my favorites. I loved the red rock and the delicately carved features. My favorite feature in the park was always Double Arch. I liked it because it was a fairly easy hike and it usually felt cool to sit on the sandstone in the shade.
I have been wanting to take R9 down here. I think that he would like it too.

Definitely worth seeing. Make sure to take your camera! The hike to Delicate Arch is SO worth it! You’ll be rewarded in the end, especially if you go during the morning sunrise or evening sunset. Simply Gorgeous! The Gossips is one of my favorite formations as well.

We were planning on spending part of the day at Arches and then heading over to Canyonlands, but we never made it out of Arches. The variety and number of arches was amazing and it was simply gorgeous. It was a bit stormy and cool in the earlier part of the day (I went in March 2007) but it cleared and warmed up as the day went on. The place seemed prehistoric and I would definitely recommend it.

Amazing place but extremely hot during the day. Try to get up early to catch some morning light and fresh desert breeze.
Btw. camping area is one of the best I have ever seen including all kinds of services and running water (in the middle of desert).
