It came to my attention last night, that there was some confusion about which arch at Arches National Park actually fell. In an effort to ease your minds, here are pictures of the ones that didn't fall and the one that did.
Delicate Arch -Still Standing
Landscape Arch - Still Standing
Wall Arch - Not Standing Anymore (we took this picture in March)
Wall Arch - Before (from the NPS website)
Wall Arch - After (from the NPS website)

Andy, thanks for the info and the wonderful pics. It is always sad to see something so beautiful go the way of all the earth, oh yea, it is part of the earth!
I've never eugoogilized an arch before.
Beautiful Pics!
Joey and I were there a few months ago with the boy scouts. One of the young men leaders (also a geographer at BYU I think) shared with the boys that as beautiful as the arches are, they would all be gone some day and to focus on the things that would last. Little did we know how prophetic his words were.
It is a sad day in the world of arches
It is a very sad day. I know what it feels like to have 'fallen arches', very painful.
