A surprising landscape of rock formations, among which the natural arches obviously stand out, awaits you at Arches, which is best visited early morning or late afternoon.
The spectacular landscape of Arches is formed where once was a huge sea, and the rocky landscape lies on top of an enormous salt bed on which arches, monoliths, rock fins, and balanced rocks were able to form. The combination of this salt bed, its heavy rocky layer, and erosion caused the formation of the landscape as we see it today. This process continues, and arches have known to collapse even in recent history. After a short rest, we continued our exploration of Arches National Park in the afternoon, and first stopped at Park Avenue. A huge rock wall with what seems like skyscrapers on both sides of a valley make for a difference from the rocky arches found elsewhere - and surely, this landscape looks awfully beautiful. We continued towards Balanced Rock. While we saw several other rocks in a seemingly impossible balancing act against gravity and erosion, Balanced Rock is a sight to behold and walking around it gives a good view from all angles. From here, we continued to Wolfe Ranch, from where we walked up towards Delicate Arch. Especially the last part was fantastic, and when we arrived at Delicate Arch, the area was full of people patiently waiting for sunset in the rocky bowl. Unfortunately, there was a line of people wanting to pose right under the Delicate Arch in some sort of odd pose for their picture to be taken, and as sunset was drawing closer, there were more and more shouts to give everyone an unobstructed view over this amazing natural structure. I walked around it several times, looking up in awe at this massive rocky formation. The orange glow of Delicate Arch with the backdrop of a blue sky was a sight to remember. We managed to be down just before it was completely dark.
