In 1991, while visitors looked on, a 60-foot long section of Landscape Arch fell to the ground. Park Rangers think that in another 10-15 years, there won’t be a Landscape Arch any more. With our breakfast tucked away in our backpack we started in on the 1.6-mile loop to view what remains of Landscape Arch. We found a cool place behind some rocks to stop, eat and enjoy the scenery. From a distance, Landscape Arch looks rather fragile and thin (but the narrowest part is still 6 feet across) and has several large cracks running along it. After a few snaps of the arch, the kids, the kids and the arch, we set off back down the trail. We were headed for Salt Lake City where we would check in to our hotel and lay low for the rest of day (a little swim, a little Animal Planet on the TV for the kids – their new addiction when we check in to hotels, and a little something to eat…). Really just a whole lot of nothing which was just what we needed….
