Description

On a drive from Moab to Monument Valley in Utah, I made a small detour to spend some time in Natural Bridges National Monument. I wished I’d had more time since I had to content myself with short walks and views from the overlooks along the Bridge View Drive. This is an overlook called Horsecollar Ruin Overlook from where you can hike to an Ancestral Puebloan ruin which was abandoned more than 700 years ago. In the site there is still an undisturbed rectangular kiva with the original roof and interior, and two granaries with horsecollar-shaped doors. Aside from its archeological value, Natural Bridges was named the first International Dark-Sky Park, which is a designation that recognizes not only that the park has some of the darkest and clearest skies in all of the United States, but also that the park has made every effort to conserve the natural dark as a resource worthy of protection. Natural Bridges National Monument is Utah’s first National Monument, declared so by Theodore Roosevelt in 1908.
