Arches Highlights - Balanced Rock, the Windows, Turret Arch, Landscape Arch

Balanced Rock


Heading up to the North Window




The North and South Windows together are called the Spectacles 

Turret Arch

On the 1.6 mile trail to Landscape Arch

In 1991, a huge 73 foot slab fell from Landscape Arch.  You can see the video on YouTube.  Now you are no longer able to go under the arch as the thinnest section is only 6 feet.
