RHH's photos with the keyword: mesa arch

We are at a guest house in Blanding, Utah, and here is a photo from our trip. We spent yesterday morning in Canyonlands and did the short hike to Mesa Arch at sunrise. It was spectacular with the La Sal Mountains in the distance and the canyon of the Colorado River below. We've been in Goblin Valley State Park, to Moonscape Overlook and Factory Butte, Arches National Park and the Island in the Sky district of Canyonlands National Park. We are headed for Monument Valley today and Antelope Canyon tomorrow and then to Death Valley for a week.

After picking up our daughter in Salt Lake City, we traveled to the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park, found a campsite, set up camp, had our evening meal and then went out to some of the viewpoints. We also hiked the short trail to Mesa Arch and watched the sunset there. The mountains in the distance are the La Sal Mountains on the Colorado border.

My apologies for being so late in posting photos today, but these will be the last I'll be posting for three weeks. We leave tomorrow morning for Arizona and Utah. We'll be at Grand Canyon, Zion and Canyonlands where this photo was taken. The view is through Mesa Arch in the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands. We'll be hiking and backpacking there with our oldest daughter.

Mesa Arch is in the Island of the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park. It can be seen at the end of a short trail from the main road.
