Windows section inside Arches Nat'l Park is a quick drive & walk to watch the sunrise or sunset.
well, it's quick if you live here .. luckily I do 😉
even in the middle of July, there were only a few people brave enough to come out before 5:30 am
inside the windows section North Window & South Window are 'connected' and kinda look like eyes watching you from inside the rocks .. across the path is Turret Arch, a long stretched out one that overlooks 'the eyes' .. you can hike all around the area, but the basic trail is less than a mile.
I can't resist a good cairn in the sunrise shot ..
double arch is below, on the 'outer loop' of the windows loop. it's 1/10th of a mile to walk TO the arch and if you're not too fearing of heights; it's cool to climb up inside
if you time it right, you can watch it rise right through turret arch
