I THINK "ELEPHANT ARCH" LOOKS LIKE IT SHOULD BE NAMED "CAMEL ARCH."

Retired
My wife and I have been to many national parks and we feel that The Arches ranks up there with the Grand Canyon. Thanks for better photos than we got.

Arches National Park
My wife and I went through the parks of Utah during the first two weeks of Sept. 2004. We came down from Vancouver, BC and were just amazed at the magnificent & starkly beautiful deserts and rock formations in southern Utah. Thanks for sharing your photo's - brings back some great memories. Cheers, Dave & Jenny Hodge
