Natural Bridges National Monument, Utah

My next stop, still along with Mom and Cathy, was a place called Natural Bridges National Monument, located near Lake Powell, in Utah. We had camped overnight in a small campground and headed south to the park. There is a 9 mile road that forms a loop that allows viewing of the 3 main natural sandstone bridges in the area. It was pretty cool seeing the last, largest bridge (Owachomo) after hiking down just a little ways to view it looking up. We spent only a few hours here, and then were on our way to Arches National Park.
