Windows and Double Arch is a hike for everyone.  Not really a hike at all!  There's lots to see and if you're Evan, lots to climb!  This was our last stop at Arches before heading out to Bryce Canyon National Park!  Stay tuned for more from our National Parks Tour. 

The second hike we did on our second day at Arches was Landscape Arch.  This is on the Devil's Garden trail.  Next time we go to Arches I want to explore these trails a little better.  We didn't have time to do everything in just a day and a half (because we were on our way to Bryce later that day) so we had to pick at choose what to do.  I am, however, glad that we made the time to go see Landscape Arch because this one is really cool and it has some interesting history.  In 1991 a huge chunk of the arch fell off (180 tons of rock) and so it's even thinner than it was.  There is one section of the arch that's only 11 feet thick! Not sure what it is about this photo but I just love it!  

Our second day at Arches National Park was our full day of hiking.  We did several hikes and saw a lot of beautiful Arches and other geological structures.  It was a lot of fun and I can't wait to go back.  This was our first trip where the boys took their own photos.  All four of us had a phone to take photos on and I had my DSLR.  We also took a full SD card of video on the GoPro.  You'll notice the boys wearing the GoPro in a lot of photos.  I haven't even uploaded those videos yet.  With 5 cameras, I've had a lot of media to go through.  Trust me, I've edited this down to the good stuff.  Regardless, it's a lot of photos and they're all out of order.  I did my best to make this post consumable.  Delicate Arch was a difficult hike but man, oh man, was it worth it!  We loved the view from the top and delicate arch is truly a sight to behold.  I'm glad we went early because it was quite crowded by the time we we...
