Canyonlands and Arches – Playing Tourist, Part 5.2
After I've now worked through the rest of the pictures, now for part two of the slide show to the National Park Tour from the extended weekend.
After Canyonlands on Saturday on Sunday, a somewhat smaller but no less beautiful National Park was on the program: The Arches National Park. The park entrance is located a few miles outside of Moab, and was thus reached by our tour base camp very quickly. As the name suggests, it is in this park to see one thing: Arches, arches or gates called rock. These sheets owe their existence to the constant erosion of the local soft sandstone by wind and rain - and you, ultimately, they fall back to the victim.
As we entered the park, we saw, however, not much of any bows. The sun was coming over the mountain peaks ...
... and no one was visible in the information building. Instead, the following was our welcoming committee Ensemble:
The true representatives of their species could be, unfortunately - apart from the crows - all day do not look over.
The view from our first stop had also done too little with stone arches, it was more like a scaled Monument Valley :
little left of center in the background the organ ( organ), the prominent rocks in the foreground is, I have given no idea how.
And on the second breakpoint Thats has no rocks gates, instead petrified sand dunes ( Petrified Dunes ):
followed the Balanced Rock - the naming should be obvious quickly
... and then it went off. Arches, Gates, Arches. First, the North Window ...
was ... followed by - well? - Right: East South West Window :
Next to it was the Turret Arch
...
… von dessen Position aus man nochmal einen hervorragenden Blick auf Nord- und Südfenster hatte:
Nach einem kleinen Fußweg erreichten wir den Double Arch …
… bevor es mit dem Auto …
… (ein Chevrolet Malibu , der sich trotz – oder gerade wegen – Automatik ganz angenehm fahren ließ), bevor es also mit dem Auto wieder einige Meilen zum nächsten Ziel zu überwinden was.
was at this stop us before a several hours' walk, so we, it was now later became morning, first, a second breakfast or lunch, offset lodged. The subsequent path had to offer some sights. It started with the remains of a ranch at the parking lot (in the picture below one can see the main building):
Here in the Middle of Nowhere , trying to end of the nineteenth century, the Farmer John Wolfe his luck, after a decade before his property again gave up and settled in Ohio more hospitable. You have to remember: The area of the park is desert, drought is a constant problem (at least in the hot season of the year) and the temperatures can easily exceed 45-degree mark. Ten years endure here must have been a huge achievement.
Only a few hundred yards further followed, the next sign of human settlement:
Petroglyphs , ie rock carvings, made by the Ute and American, therefore, of the indigenous community, which the State Utah to its present name helped.
The subsequent path was steep and led by sparsely vegetated, rocky terrain:
After several steps and breaths, we were finally released until then by a rock wall hidden view of the undoubtedly most famous of all Arches and we were left with Delicate Arch :
He is perhaps the among the most impressive Arches national park, not necessarily its size, which is also impressive (note the size comparison, the shoe prints in the snow), but rather by the fact that he was on a high plateau, completely free in the landscape. Not without reason he brought it to Utah as one of the landmarks of the state, what you get here presented daily on hundreds of cars in the form of their license plates:
them here also seemed to like the bow:
The arduous climb was followed by a noticeably faster descent, another car-stage and then again the following forms: The Tunnel Arch ...
... the Pine Tree Arch ...
... and finally, with (depending on the measurement method) over a hundred meters wingspan allegedly longest rock arch in the world, Landscape Arch :
The Landscape Arch makes to the viewer a rather fragile Impression - and rightly so, for he has in the past three years, lost several hundredweight of heavy parts. In itself, this view was no longer increase, but we continued our walk along the path begun in order to achieve even two more bows.
It was again a bit steep ...
... and snowy ...
... but the effort was ultimately with a view to or by the Partition Arch ...
... and the Navajo Arch paid ...
... even if the way there, in places, in the truest sense of the word a balancing act meant
When we finally approached the car, it was late afternoon ...
... but before again called on the street (after all, were still a good five hours back to Salt Lake in front of us) ...
... we made one last stop at this a rock formation ...
to have ... after another hour's walk even short visits two forms: the Sand Dune Arch ...
... and the Broken Arch :
latter bears his name, actually it wrong, because he is not broken, so broken, do but by this score here ...
... a pretty broken impression.
Fairly broken we were when we compared to 22 clock back on Sunday evening arrived in Salt Lake.
What remains as a short conclusion? The tour was in all cases all the trouble, all footpaths, all hours, all organizational and financial effort worth it. Utah has to offer on its face to many many scenic attractions. I hope I get to see some more of it.
Good morning!

What Ammo To Use Marlin 30 30
Canyonlands and Arches – Playing Tourist, Part 5.1
It is quiet in the blog the past few days. The keyboard has scheduled dust. The mouse stops hibernating. Or so. Why is it that the last post is already ten days old?
Certainly not because I have not seen the last few days - quite the contrary. But from the beginning: The last weekend
was extended by one day for me, because here on Monday Washington's Birthday or Presidents' Day was celebrated . It was ideal, therefore, to use the days for a small Utah-Finding Tour. Together with three other German exchange students I rented a car and took me on Friday afternoon on a five-hour drive to the south-east, after Moab.
Moab is a town that has something to offer to very little. For tourists it is still attractive from a very specific reason: namely, Moab is in close proximity to two national parks, the starting right outside the city Arches and the somewhat more distant Canyonlands National Park .
were on Saturday for us Canyonlands on the program, more precisely, whose northern part, which Iceland in the Sky . I would not lose many words about the park itself (who wants a bit more background information, can follow the last link), only this: The host of us part of the canyon country is bordered to the west by Green River , to the east of much more famous Colorado River . At the southernmost point of the park portion unite the rivers.
Green River and Colorado in millions of years, they created a truly magnificent canyon scenery, which, they say, perhaps even more overwhelming than the famous Grand Canyon . But I want pictures can speak and not words, that the curtain to Photo Safari (turn and think: leave to enlarge Click the images):
Early Saturday morning we drove off ...
... past free-roaming cows in Free Range Areas (means: you go through a grating on the road and the next moment in the middle of a cow pasture) ...
... towards the sun :
Before the actual national park visit, however we made a detour in the directly adjoining Dead Horse Point State Park . So he took the opportunity for a first look into the canyon of the Colorado ...
... and the surrounding vegetation ...
... but the very near future through the second and third view has been exceeded:
In the wake of this overwhelming opening it finally went back for a last look ...
... next to the actual destination of the day, the Canyonlands National Park.
first sight for us was there the Upheaval Dome , a crater larger than a kilometer in diameter, whose creation there are different theories - among other things, a meteorite believed. Here are some impressions from the crater itself and its environment:
Die Tour von unserem Parkplatz zum Krater und zurück nahm einige Zeit in Anspruch. Im Anschluss wurde daher ein zweites Frühstück eingelegt, bevor die Aussicht fürs erste wieder aus Autofahrer-Perspektive genossen wurde:
Der nächste Stopp am Green River Overlook bot wieder einen grandiosen Blick über einen Canyon, diesmal allerdings, wie der Name schon sagt, über den vom Green River geformten:
The images can certainly play only a weak imitation of the experience: kilometer-wide view of a completely deserted area, and what was perhaps even more impressive - absolute silence.
Probably we had met that day just the happiness that several factors: no wind blew, a few other people could be looking everywhere and there was still snow, which provides additional cushioning. I lack the right words to describe, so with pictures:
Not many animals we had seen that day: the cows have been shown, some rodents, which unfortunately zu schnell und klein für ein ordentliches Foto waren, aber vor allem diese Gesellen:
Der Himmel blieb den ganzen Tag über blau, aber obwohl die Temperatur noch unter Null lag, spürte man die Kraft der Spätwintersonne (vor allem am Abend dann, in Form eines Sonnenbrandes im Gesicht):
Nach einer weiteren Auto-Etappe standen wir schließlich vor dem Mesa Arch , einem Felsenbogen, der schon einen kleinen Vorgeschmack auf den Arches-Nationalpark gab, der ja für Sonntag geplant war:
It was already afternoon when we reached the southernmost point of the tour, the Grand View Point Overlook . He offers a view of both rivers, Colorado and Green River, the view from there something somewhere merge further south.
A look that can roam freely, according to a guide on this point than a hundred miles Canyon:
From the next stage, a short hike to and through the Whale Rock (a strongly rounded rocks, reminiscent in shape with a little imagination to the body of a whale), I have unfortunately no reasonable pictures - on that day I had, I think for the first time ever since I my own camera to deal with a borderless full memory card. And a couple of shots I wanted to save important for the grand finale of the day.
As it was in fact become evening, we went back once more to the westward Green River Overlook , there to enjoy the sunset:
So I choose the photo tour on Saturday. It should be clear why I am the last days did not come to write. If it does not: I'm in the last week alone more than 300 photos from Saturday sorted and processed, and assembled and edited thirteen panoramas (which by the way see you all here). With the pictures from Sunday I have not even started.
I still hope that the long wait has been worthwhile. The report from Sunday will follow in the next journal.
Good morning, Utah. Good morning, Germany (and also best wishes to my readers or my reader in Australia)!
