Today we will climb up to the Delicate Arch in the Arches Nation Park in South Utah through this photo post
The tourist brochure describes the climb up to the Delicate Arch in the Arches National Park in Southern Utah as strenuous.
The travel advisory for the 3mile round trek also suggests that every person attempting the trek, drink a gallon of water at least.
On a scorching July morning, we set out. As my city bred bones and muscles creaked, every step on the hot rocks took us through the most amazingly incredible scenery.
With netleaf, hackberry shrubs underfoot, curious, circling Turkey Vultures and Eagles overhead, disdainful Common Ravens by the wayside, nostrils assailed by the occasional, sudden, warm, rancid smell of burrowing animals and impossible to overlook, the accompanying countless, careless tourists from every corner of the globe, we made our way up.
The photos I’ve enclosed do not do any justice to the magnificence of nature’s artistry at all.
Arches National Park has many natural stone arches.It probably has the largest concentration of natural arches in the world including over two thousand arches ,pinnacles, balanced rocks, fins etc.
Arches National Park is north of the town of Moab, Utah.It has more than 700 species of flora and fauna.The temperature fluctuation is extreme.Want to know more? Check out this article.

The Delicate Arch is a magical place! Good for your Aunty to make her way up there!
The first time we went there, we were the proverbial stupid tourists that embarked for the hike with flip flops, only a small water bottle and nothing to eat….
