Arches National Park, Utah
All I can say regarding this area, which encompasses several national parks, is “awesome”. As you travel over the New Mexico/Colorado/Utah state line the geology literally changes before your eyes. Arches National Park is named for the large number of rock arches that are located within the area. The rock is red rock sandstone. The one aspect of the park that stays with you is the immense size of the monoliths – they are massive!
I discovered this knarled old tree just as the sun was setting. I have no idea how old the tree is and can only summise it to be ancient.
