Sunset in Arches National Park

After visiting Canyonlands National Park, and stopping in Moab for dinner, we did a quick drive into Arches National Park just before sunset.

Arches currently requires one-hour timeslot entry tickets, but is freely open to all after 17:00 (5 PM). We had timed entry tickets for several days, but took advantage of this free-for-all time on this occasion (and another evening).
