DELICATE ARCH
Arches National Park, Utah
THE STORY. . . Situated atop a high plateau overlooking the sweeping deserts of eastern Utah, Delicate Arch has become a beloved symbol of the state. Reaching straight up to the sky, this brilliant span of rock seems to defy gravity, making it one of the very few free-standing rock arches in the world. Long before the Colossus of Rhodes, or the Arch de Triumph of Paris, there was Delicate Arch, a true masterpiece of nature.
