Arches

it was Jeep Safari week in Moab
there were thousands of these
ozymandias
"the balancing rock"
how did this fall off?
a few of the 2000 arches in Arches


"the double arch"
moving to Reno, back of the wagon filled with plants 

lunch at Arches, 39 degrees
sometime in the 1600's

"the delicate arch"

"the landscape arch"
 in 1991 it dropped an 180 ton slab and almost crushed a group of arch viewers
the La Sal mountains hit 12,000' and are constantly visible
utah juniper, ~ 500 years old

the sandstone walls are decorated with patterns
