Arches National Park


On our way home we stopped by Arches National Park, and spent one afternoon/evening and the next morning there. The landscape, the colors, and the rock formations were so beautiful, and so unlike anywhere we've been before. While we were there we stayed in Moab, a town just south of Arches. We found an amazing cafe, The Peace Tree Juice Cafe, that had great fruit smoothies (and a great name too :) I took the first three pictures the first evening, and the light and colors were so beautiful. Cairns like the ones in the fourth pic are all over Arches. The base stone is actually attached to the ground to mark the trail, and then people build off of that.
