Nine-Years Ago (16-September-2006) — Utah

Gone to See America 2006 Driving Tour. Day 18: Arches National Park, Utah

I passed through Moab and Arches National Park as part of my Gone To See America 2006 driving tour. Little did I know that I would be visiting Arches National Park on the same day of the year two years later. Keeping the people in the image gives an idea of scale.
On this trip the images were taken with a Nikon D200, and only saved in jpg format.
