Owachomo Bridge - Natural Bridges Utah

Natural Bridges National Monument is a U.S. National Monument located about 50 miles (80 km) northwest of the Four Corners boundary of southeast Utah, in the western United States. It features three natural bridges, one of them is the second largest natural bridge in the world, carved from the white Permian sandstone of the Cedar Mesa Formation that gives White Canyon its name.

Owachomo Bridge is the smallest and thinnest of the three natural bridges here and is commonly thought to be the oldest. We may never know for certain, as each of the bridges certainly have eroded at different rates. Regardless of its relative age, Owachomo Bridge is certainly the most fragile and elegant of the three spans, and an awe inspiring feature of erosion. The iconic bridge is 32-meter High and 55-meter long, while only 3-meter thick.

Natural Bridges National Monument is the first ever international Dark Sky Park as designated by International Dark Sky Association in 2007.

Epic Monument Valley

Monument Valley (Tse Bii' Ndzisgaii is the Navajo (Dine) term, which means Valley of the Rocks) is a vast landscape of sandstone buttes and mesas and free-standing formations on the Colorado Plateau. A part of the Navajo Nation Reservation, it was occupied by Paleo-Indians from 12,000 BC, the Archaic hunter-gatherers from 6,000 BC, Anasazi farmers from 1-1300 AD, Paiutes from 1300 AD, and finally the Navajo. The Anasazi left behind some ruins and a number of petroglyphs which are shown in this section.

Many of the huge rust-colored sandstone buttes, mesas and other formations are nearly 1,000 feet tall. There is a haunting sensation that they are waiting for something momentous or cataclysmic to happen. It seems they hold tremendous power, like great slumbering animals frozen in time. They have been waiting, in silent majesty, for millions of years.

Monument Valley's amazing scenery, seen in so many films, truly lives up to its reputation for spectacular views.
