Some of our most memorable walking experiences occur right here in North America. Who can forget rounding the bend in Arches National Park to view towering Delicate Arch for the first time, or exploring the desert in bloom among the human-like forms of saguaro cacti at Saguaro National Park? The ancient sandstone pueblos of Mesa Verde National Park prompt lingering questions about their mysterious architects of long ago. And what can compare to the grandeur of Zion’s splendid massifs, the multi-colored spires of Bryce Canyon, and the awe-inspiring panoramas of the Grand Canyon?! Seeing all of this from a walker’s perspective provides a lasting connection to the history, culture, and scenery of our own American Southwest!
