The destination of our longest hike of the day. Karl resting under the bottom "O" of the Double O Arch |
|
|
Park Avenue from the designated overlook |
|
Landscape Arch - great view that takes a fairly simple 2 mile round trip hike |
Fabulous formations, some seen from the road or short, simi-level hiking paths, and others after hours of walking in sand, scrambling up rocks, or ascending some fairly perpendicular rock faces.
|
Karl checking to see if I'm okay. Ya, ya, I'm coming, already. I can't take photos while I'm walking. |
|
|
Ooops, there he goes. Good thing those nifty little stacks of stones marks the trail so I won't get too confused. |
|
|
yep, those funky little rocks prove I'm still on the trail. | | |
|
|
Karl checking GPS on our most difficult climb of the day. "The Bowl" is only a few hundred feet away, but we won't be finding it from this face. That means hiking back out and trying it from another side. | |
|
|
Toe wedge... you've got to be kidding. Didn't I already say I wasn't going any farther?Ah-ha. So this is the side where we were supposed to start. Who would have thought the camp ground side and not the trail. Go figure. |
|
This is what we came to see. Info says not to go into bowl (as if!) apparently even really good climbers require ropes, etc. to get out of this hole. |
|
That's where we were! |
