This photograph was taken on a cool and clear morning just after sunrise, when the Entrada sandstone glows in the amber rays of the day’s first light. The opening in the North Window (foreground) is about 40 feet high and the vertical opening in Turret arch is about 65 feet high. Arches National Park contains the largest concentration of natural arches in the world. They range from a 3 foot opening to a span that is 105 feet high and 291 feet from base to base.
