Arches National Park, Utah
We had an RV pad reservation at Arches National Park just north of Moab, UT. There are no hook-ups (water, electric) in the National Parks which made it pretty rustic. There are over 2,000 arches throughout the park and their sheer size is somewhat overwhelming. We hiked to or through a number of arches. There are no guard rails or park rangers to tell you what to do or not do. Everything is in its natural state.

Photo: "Park Avenue" is named for the massive rock slabs that resemble the skyscrapers in NYC.
