We had two beautiful days in Arches and it is worth to stay there even longer. An amazing spot where you truly feel and see the time it takes to create this landscape. It wouldn’t be that surprising if a Dinosaur came around the corner.

Let’s start with Delicate Arch. Amazing spot and a nice walk up to the arch. Very likely one of the most famous arches in the park.

Windows section with Turret Arch. We’ve been here at sunset and it was truly amazing. Even if there were quite a few people you do feel peace and could enjoy watching the rocks turning red while the sun goes down.

Some geologists estimate that roughly 60 million years ago, a meteorite with a diameter of approximately one-third of a mile hit at what is now the Upheaval Dome.

The whole panorama is quite small here… as it is too huge for our small screens. The whole picture has 139 Mpix. Click to enlarge and to see a little bit more details.

…to get an impression of the size. The crop below shows the two buttes in 100% view, which you might see at the very left of the picture.

The first section is showing Lake Manyara NP, followed by Ngorongoro Crater with pictures of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area including the Empakai Crater. The last section focuses on the Serengeti and here it is the south eastern part, the Ndutu- and Loliondo Area. To open the gallery, just click into the picture. Enjoy.
