Arches National Park, UT
The first day we arrived we drove to all the overlooks to scout out the best hikes and times to return. Many of the arches are only a short hike from the parking lots.
Yesterday we rose early to hike the ridge to see Landscape Arch, Double O Arch and serveral others that are included in the Arches Photo Gallery. This hike is best done before noon since the temperatures are well above 100F in the afternoon. A gallon of water per person is not too much. The morning light is best for these arches at the north end of the park. -L
