Arches National Park: things that aren't arches

Amazingly enough, Arches National Park has things in it that aren't arches, windows, or similar sorts of objects. It's got views, hoodoo-like features, and critters.


These are part of an area called Park Avenue


The Courthouse

A moai-like figure.

Balanced Rock

These fin-like formations are where quite a few arches are found.

This area of Arches NP is called the Fiery Furnace. It's a sizable area of fins and hoodoos. Hiking in this area is tightly controlled by the NPS, as there are no trails.

The Dark Angel

A sphinx-like shape near the Delicate Arch

This is a view of the La Sal Range, which is a fixture of the skyline in the Moab area.

Bunny Wabbit!

Smile for the birdie!
