Delicate Arch Viewpoint trail, Arches

This trail lets you view the arch from about a half mile away. There is a large gorge between the viewing point and the arch. This is the view near the parking lot. You don't get to see the arch again for the next mile of trail.

First view of the arch from the trail.

We came to Delicate Arch Viewpoint twice. The first time was early in the morning on our first day of vacation. We ended up having trouble with the cameras. Later Eric and Roger returned by themselves. Guess what? We hadn't gone to the end of the trail the first time. It actually went up a lot more. The view was much better the second time.

There's another small arch by Delicate Arch.

We can see the parking lot. We are about a mile away (as the crow flies).

See all the people by the arch.

We had a raven watch our car.
