Arches National Park was the busiest place we visited on this trip. Some parking lots were totally full! The most popular stop is the windows area where many tour busses are disgorging their hordes of tourists.We did manage to see most of the arch configurations. By the end of the day, our Apple watches had measured over 7 miles of walking! Considering that most of the park is about 5,000 feet altitude, we thought that was pretty good for a couple of octogenarians!

The photos are arranged roughly in the order those sites are encountered in the park from the entrance to the northern end.
