The arches are actually red unless you catch Arches National Park at sunrise or sunset. This area boasts one of the world's greatest densities of natural arches--over 2,000 catalogued. Landscape Arch (shown) is the longest, measuring 306 feet across. Not only are the arches fascinating, but so are the spires, pinnacles, and precariously-balanced rocks that look ready to topple. Drew and I had lots of fun using our imagination on the never-ending rock formations, much like you do when cloud glazing. We decided the Park could name a gazillion such formations rather than just the handful they have, like Three Gossips (shown) and Balanced Rock. But then, of course, you'd need months to make your way through the Park!
