The development of an arch

 We have seen so many arches! Here is a snapshot of how we have experienced them.



A 'recent' arch forming at the base of a sheer cliff face.


A small opening peeping through this sandstone monolith


The arch starts to erode, opening up more and interesting shapes emerge.


Eventually a monumental arch has been formed and the next phase will be the collapsing of the arch.
I an fascinated by this arch which is called Broken Arch - can you also seeing the two dinosaurs touching noses!

And perhaps this would have been an arch! Sheer walls of the canyon along the Park Avenue Trail
