Description

The Devil’s Garden trail in Arches National Park has been on my list for a long time. It is an incredible hike on which you explore several remote arches, traverse the top of a sheer sandstone fin, and wind through a maze of unearthly formations. It is an awe inspiring playground with surprises around every turn.
