The sign at the entrance to the park

My campsite at the park. 

The view from my campsite. It was really dark here at night. I saw the Milky Way, shooting stars and many other stars!

Natural bridges are created by streams. There are three natural bridges in this park.

The rocks mark the trail to Sipapu bridge. Sipapu is a Hopi word that refers to a hole in the floor of a kiva.
Sipapu bridge is about 220 feet tall and 268 feet across. It is the second largest natural bridge in the world!

Kachina bridge is smaller, and younger, than Sipapu bridge.
