The desert can make you do crazy things. Although, after 16 miles of hiking, snoozing in 6" of cool water didn't seem crazy at all.

We had a delightful campsite on the last night, about 8 mi from the end of the hike.

The hike starts around 5000' and descends to 2000' over four days. By day 3 or so, it started getting awfully hot. We took it easy around lunch.

I didn't do a good job of capturing the immensity of this arch.

From Wikipedia's entry:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrather_Arch

With "a span of 75 meters (246 feet), Wrather Arch is the longest natural arch outside of the state of Utah..., making it the 4th longest natural span according to the Natural Arch and Bridge Society.

Wrather Arch is distinguished among the great natural bridges in the USA as being the least accessible. Located in the heart of the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness area, it can only be accessed on foot. Being located almost at the midway point of the Paria Canyon trail, potential visitors must hike nearly 32 kilometers (20 miles), frequently walking in the shallow river, to witness this remote landform."

Could this be evidence that ancient astronauts visited indigenous peoples?

I doubt it.

The glare off of the rock was just crazy. I had to shoot at an oblique angle to get any contrast.

Spring =>

Most of the springs were relatively easy to find, but this "sign" was kinda nice.
