See the Backside of the Park With Me

Many people have seen the sites off of the main roads in Arches National Park. My wife and I drove down Salt Wash Road in the park. It is open only to four wheel drive vehicles and is closed when it rains. I'm always amazed at how many people from the rest of the world come to see the national parks in southern Utah yet very few people from Utah have seen them. On this trail we met some people from Italy fourwheeling the hard way up Salt Wash road!
