For anyone that has been to “Arches National Park” you will be able to relate to this short video of (Landscape Arch). And for anyone that has not been to “Arches National Park” I would suggest that you put this Park in your “Bucket List”. I have been able to visit most of the Parks in the Southwest and this park is by far one of the most impressive Parks I have ever seen. The three days I spent in “Arches National Park” I photographed with two cameras with different lens and a large video camera. For anyone that doesn’t hike very much you may need to do some walking and or hiking before you venture into “Arches National Park” because many of the Arches are not right of the road. I hike everyday around the desert in the surrounding Las Vegas area and after hiking Arches I was exhausted. The Park is also at a higher elevation so there is less oxygen so you become winded very easy plus some of the hiking is at a 45 degree slope. I have around 45 minutes of short videos like the one below and hundreds of Breath-Taking photographs that will be sharing at Activerain, Facebook, Twitter, Videos by Vegas Bob and other networks.
I had the chance to spend 3 days in one of the most Beautiful Parks in the United States … “Arches National Park” in Utah.

Hello Chris and Michael and all I can say is after my visit to "Arches National Park" I have become spoiled and there are very few places I look at now that really appeal to me!
Is this a good thing or bad?

Hey VB, very nice area. I've placed Southern on the must see list because of the many blogs posted by Wanda Kubat-Nerdin. Thanks for sharing, even though the narrator was a bit out of breathe.

great video..I visited AZ and UT a few years ago and saw several places similar.. One, the arch had fallen, It was sad to think that something so beautiful and old had gone away..... It is amazing that the arches stay as long as they do, can you imagine the weight of the rocks?

Bob, Arches is one of the most beautiful places on Earth! I had a bunch of old photographs of it, but they have been misplace in the several moves that we have made since we were married. I need to get into shape and go back. The hike to the landscape or delicate arch is a nice one!

Hello Tom and have you been to Lake Powell? I have heard LP is an amazing place also, and Arches National Park on to of it ... (BONUS)!
And Michelle there are some Arches that you can view without hiking, this one in the photo isn't a bad hike. But VB hiked way to much the day I shot video on this Arch above. I got up at 4:30am drove out to the head of the trail, hiked 8 miles with no food and followed this hike with another 6 mile hike till 12:30pm with still no food. I was exhausted, and my legs and back were shot the rest of the day, I over did the hiking for the day!
Hello Kristine and let VB know when you visit ANP and I may just meet you there, it is a 6-7 hour drive one way from Vegas!
And Kathy thanks for stopping by and I find enough time to sell Real Estate, I have been taking a little break for a while.

Bob,
This is a keeper! What a beautiful video and excellent narration. I don't know if you're familiar with New Hampshire's,"Old Man On The Mountain?" It was a famous landmark and historical place for tourists to visit. The mountain looked like it had a natural carved face of an old man at the top of the mountain; however, several years ago the nose fell out due to errosion and they couldn't restore it. It no longer looks like "Old Man on the Mountain."
Arches need to be preserved and appreciated while they are still here. What a beautiful work of art, carved by the Master Himself! This looks like a trip that is worth it to hike to see and appreciate in person. Thank you for documenting it! It's well done.
