Illustrative image: Arches National Park is one of my favorite National Parks but I haven't been there in a while so it was time to head back. Good choice. I lucked out with some great weather in November 2012 and spent 1.5 days hiking and ambling through the Park - not enough time but I loved every minute of it - can't wait until the next time!
