Courthouse Wash from Willow Springs

I'm always find dinosaur tracks fascinating. Willow Springs has a few cool tracks not as defined as others but definitely noticeable. There is also an interpretive sign describing the tracks installed by the Bureau of Land Management. To find the tracks, drive north on 191. Over the Colorado River and drive until you pass route 313 on the left. Willow Springs rd is the second right after route ...

The Bar M Loop Trail is a popular, family-friendly trail system located just north of Moab, Utah, offering scenic views of red rock mesas and the La Sal Mountains.

...If you're in the MOAB area, this is an arch that's definitely worth checking out! This arch probably doesn't get the recognition that it deserves, mainly due to number of arches that are in the town of MOAB and inside Arches & Canyonlands National Park.  The hike itself was fairly easy, considering I was mainly hiking along the OHV dirt roads. The trail/road I was on to get to the arch...
