Adventures by Disney – Moab Part 4 – Hiking to Delicate Arch

WE MADE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our first glimpse. The photos here really don’t do justice to the incredible expanse and majesty of this beautiful place.

Two hot, tired, but VERY HAPPY hikers!

We sat on the wall for awhile and watched others from our group head across the very slick rock to get to the actual arch. Here’s a photo of some of our friends.

Using my 10x optical zoom, we can now see it was Adventurer Michelle who was standing inside the arch!

After admiring the Arch from afar, we decided to climb down and get a closer view. There was an approximate 3 foot “wall” to climb over to get to more slick rock to make our way slowly to the arch.

Once we were part way to the actual arch, I turned back around to take a photo of the landscape.

LindaLou and Wanda carefully watch their step as they make their way to the arch.

Sharyne and her family stand under the arch.

Linda and I under the Arch. We could have stayed there for hours, mesmerized by the view.

I looked up and took this photo.

Linda got back in line to share the arch with her sister, Wanda. Here, they are looking out on the other side of the arch.

Hamming it up for the camera.

Our Adventure Guide, Tiffany, photographs folks in the arch!

The final phase of the hike which was on, thankfully, a well defined trail.

Soon we were back on the bus to check on our friend who was unable to complete the hike. We were very happy to see him smiling and doing great!

A ride back into Moab for some lunch and shopping and then back to the Red Cliff Lodge.
