Arches National Park

2000/4/25 (Tue)

We woke up at 7:00. Ate serials, sandwiches, and apple at our room then went to the Arches National Park.

This is our 8th National Park in US. Stopped at visitor center to get some hiking info but there were a lot of people asking at the counter.

First we went to the Park Avenue which stone walls were looks like tall buildings of Park Avenue in New York.

We worked down to the valley and work through the walls except grandma, grandpa, and Hiroaki in order to move our vehicle.

At Courthouse Towers Viewpoint where the end of the trail, Hiroaki found a wild flower Dwarf Evening Primrose.

Balance Rock was under parking area construction and we parked a car at side way to wark to the rocks.

Windows Section was the next trail.

We packed donuts, drinks and beers bought at the glossary store at Moab for lunch. First arch was the Turret.
