Finding Solitude in Arches National Park

Finding Solitude in Arches National Park

We arrived in Arches National Park in early October. I realize this won’t be popular opinion, but Arches didn’t start out being one of my favorite parks. It is beautiful and boasts having the largest concentration of sandstone arches in the world. However, it is a small park with 3 major pull off areas – The Windows, Delicate Arch and Devils Garden – which makes it feel incredibly busy with minimal escape from the crowds.
