Our side trip on our last day camping at Arches was to travel into the Islands in the Sky district of the Canyonlands National Park. The park road takes you around the edge of a large mesa with great views of the Green River (north) and Colorado River (south) basins on either side of the mesa.

A view south and slightly east to into the Colorado basin.A view north towards the Green River Basin.Another northern view.Out at the end of the mesa looking west.Another westward view.Looking south to the Colorado River basin.A final view to the South and east (near Dead Horse Point State Park).
