My Photos - Delicate Arch in Arches National Park
Delicate Arch
Delicate Arch is probably the most recognizable arch in the entire national park. This arch is so popular that it is on the design of some Utah license plates! Above is a photo of Delicate Arch taken during an excursion in February 2009. I hiked on the Delicate Arch Trail from the Wolfe Ranch area, a reasonable 1.5 mile walk to the arch.

Delicate Arch Upper Viewpoint

January 1, 2010 - After hiking the Park Avenue Trail and visiting Sand Dune Arch and Broken Arch, I ventured toward Delicate Arch. In previous visits, I had always taken the standard route (Delicate Arch Trail) which brings a person in close proximity to the point one can stand during under the arch. This time, I wanted to photograph the view of Delicate Arch from the upper and lower viewpoints farther down the canyon.

Adjacent are two snowy Utah desert photos during my walk to the upper viewpoint.
