We went to Arches National Park this spring. We are starting to get the hang of camping, but I think more than 2 nights in a tent is still pushing it. The kids got the Junior Badges and learned about the geology there.
Spring was the perfect time to see the wildflowers. It's amazing to see how these plants have learned to thrive in such arid conditions. This paintbrush plant (I believe it's a Castillejea chromosa) seemed especially vibrant.
We really enjoyed hiking the Park Avenue trail. Saffron loved hiking on her own. She was quite the trooper.
The kids had a lot of fun. The weather was just right and it was so nice to get away. Hmm... maybe it's time for another trip!
