Description
Arch Rock has formed over many millennia by strong winds and rain slowly washing away the materials holding its sand grains together. The rock weakened over time, allowing the natural arch that you see today to form. Eventually it will grow too large for its support and will collapse. No climbing on this beautiful fragile structure is allowed. Arch Rock is a must see and a great photo opportunity. The red sandstone mountains found in the Nevada's Valley Of Fire area is a rich deep coral color that turns a blazing red when the sun is setting and the warm light intensifies the effect. The area is noted for the strange formations caused by wind erosion which tears off tiny grains of sand and "sandblasts" deep caves and other formations.
