KillEmAll and I took the 3 mile round trip hike to see Utah's icon arch, Delicate Arch.

We hit the arch near sunset, which is recommended. We discovered this is common knowledge as well, as we joined the zoo waiting to take the sunset photos of the arch as well.

The hike was mild, but we took it in a hurried pace, to beat the sunset. I'm guessing it took us about 40 minutes to get there.

Here are the pictures. You'll easily notice I've got a ton of Delicate Arch. Don't worry, I DON'T HAVE A DELICATE ARCH CRISIS. I actually had about 150 pics of the arch, different angles, different lighting. And here's what I have left.


Yep, it's STILL too many, but deal with it.

Wonderful pictures.

My favorite part about Delicate Arch is the way that it suddenly appears out of nowhere.

If you are bagging all of the fantastic abandoned arches, here is another one that some call the "Delicate Arch of Arizona".

It is mostly called Royal Arch.

Great pics, I cant belive you were able to get pics of the arch with out some people standing under or around it.
Last time we did this hike we are asked "do you know how much further it is" about 50 times. My reply to this is always "your not even half way".

How cool would it be if they's let you bike out to the arch! Everything is rideable!
