Capitol Reef National Park, Utah, March 2022, Part 19 – Arches

On the return from Upper Muley Twist Canyon trailhead towards the Burr Trail Road, we stopped at arches we had spotted along the 4 wheel drive road to the trailhead.  There are no safe ways to get very close to these arches, but one can hike up sandy banks to find a number of vantage points from which to shoot from below the arches.

This is a double arch, which may not be readily apparent at first glance.
