Day 17: Delicate Arch, Colorado NM, and Goblin Valley SP

Wednesday, May 29

We were awake at 4:06 so that we could drive into Arches NP and park at Wolfe Ranch for the steep 3.2 mile RT hike to Delicate Arch to watch the sunrise there. Someone got engaged under the arch around that time. I took my turn standing under the arch and climbed up Window Arch overlooking Delicate Arch. 




After the hike and cleaning up and washing up in the van after breakfast, we left Arches and drove to Colorado to Grand Junction. Here, we drove the Rim Rock Road through Colorado national monument. 





Back in the van and retracing our steps back to Utah, our next stop was at Goblin Valley state park, where I walked among the goblin structures and flew the drone and we showered at the campground there (ssh! campers only) before driving to Hanksville UT and boondocking on BLM land.
