When our two girls were in high school we took a two week trip out to the beautiful National Parks of the Grand Circle. That trip has had lasting memories for our family and now they travel to NP across our country. This photo was one our daughter took last summer. The NP are a treasure we must protect and preserve. My husband and I have traveled to countless NP from Acadia in Maine to those on the West coast and Hawaii, Virgin Islands and throughout the US.
It angers all of us that this President has no regard for what this beauty represents to Americans and foreigners who travel to see these precious wonders of nature as well as those which are a part of our Country’s history retold.
They are our heritage.
Sincerely,
Arches National Park
With more than 2,000 natural stone arches, this landmark park offers more of these distinctive rock formations than anywhere else in the world. Wind and water, extreme temperatures, and a shifting underground salt bed sculpted the red rock over time into the area's spectacular and often delicate shapes. These arches can be large and impressive like the famous Delicate Arch, or just slivers in the sandstone.
State(s): Utah
Established: 1929

All the stuff at the park were wonderfully friendly and informative and welcoming. It was our first time at the park and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Greetings from Arches National Park
I was hiking Angel's Landing and got to the check point at the top overlook before you do the chains section. I decided to sit and chat with the 2 rangers working that station. One said she saw me hiking up and recognized my tattoos. They were both so friendly…
