WHAT TO EXPECT: With two parks to visit and a long list of things to do, you’ll appreciate our recommendations for how to prioritize your time best when exploring Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. Arches National Park alone has over 2,000 arches throughout the park. We’ll lead you to the most popular ones like Delicate Arch, Double Arch and Landscape Arch. And others such as Skyline Arch and Devils Garden area if you have more time. We’ll rehash a quick geology lesson, so you understand and appreciate the multiple geological forces at work required to create these amazing features. But the tour is not all about rocks, there are stories about some unique characters who were drawn here and more about the delicate ecosystem that sustains a surprising amount of diversity. As we drive along the Grand View Point Road in the Island in the Sky District, there are a number of viewpoints that peer down into canyons eroded by the Colorado and Green Rivers. Plan to arrive early with coffee if you want to capture the Mesa Arch sunrise image with other eager photographers, or enjoy a late sundowner. The Museum of Moab is the best location to learn more about local Puebloan people, but a hike on the Aztec Butte Trail will take you to view their ancestral structures called granaries. Both tours begin and end on the drive to and from Moab, or join anywhere along the tour route. WHAT YOU’LL SEE: Some of the highlights along the route include; • Delicate Arch • Three Gossips • Windows • Landscape Arch • Balanced Rock • Skyline Arch • Grand View Point • Mesa Arch • Candlestick Tower • Aztec Butte • Upheaval Dome • Whale Rock • Needles District CHARGING: ++ Continued use of GPS/Location Services in the background increases battery usage.
