Share Our World: Park Avenue

Part of our Southern Utah trip included multiple trips into Arches National Park.

The first stop we made was a quick look at Park Avenue. There are two sheer cliffs and a trail going to Courthouse Towers.


These cliffs are awesome!

It is said that it is named Park Avenue because it reminded early visitors of buildings lining a big city street. 1

There is a Park Avenue in New York City and I keep thinking of Park Place from Monopoly when I was there. Very beautiful and posh.

Next time I would like to go on the hike.

According to the National Park Service it is 2 miles (3.2 km) and takes 1.5 hours with an elevation change of 320 feet (98 m). 2

Alas, we didn't stop as we were on our way to hike Delicate Arch...which is incredible.
