We went back to Arches National Park the next day, driving straight to the end of the park, to do the Landscape Arch hike. This is a fairly easy 1.9 mile (3.1 km) stroll along a mostly flat gravel and sand path, though there were some short steep hills.

The line of cars to get through the entrance station; we continue to believe that all parks should have an express line for people with park passes; most of the holdup is due to people paying and/or asking questions:

The path used to go under the arch, but that is closed since part of it collapsed:

On the way back, we took a half-mile side path to Pine Tree arch:

And the Tunnel arches:

Afterwards, we had a picnic dinner at a nice spot:

We were rather hot, but had come prepared with cooling headbands; I kinda look like a hippie:

Finally, some fins:
