Delicate Arch, as seen from across the canyon. This is the arch that's on all the Utah license plates.

A view of the sheer cliff the Delicate Arch stands on. Also a great explanation for why there's no trail from here.

That spire with the bowl behind it doesn't look that big and far below us, right?

Double Arch. For scale, notice the people standing up on the left-hand rock underneath the closest arch.

Tammy, climbing up to get a view through the far arch. The cliff drops off quite a ways from there.

I've just gotten the wiper-fluid resevour back in and will be putting the bacttery back in next. Still in the middle of nowhere, but a hose-clamp broke on the power stearing fluid, and I had to take everything out to get to it, steal a random hose-clamp

I've just gotten the wiper-fluid resevour back in and will be putting the bacttery back in next. Still in the middle of nowhere, but a hose-clamp broke on the power stearing fluid, and I had to take everything out to get to it, steal a random hose-clamp from somewhere else in the engine, then get the 30+ miles back to the town of Moab without lossing too much coolant from the hose whose clamp I just stole. Will the fun never end?
One last look at the arches of Arches National Park, this was taken during a 8-9 mile hike in what we were later told was 116 degree weather. Needless to say, a hotel room was waiting for us that evening.
