Natural Bridges Natl Monument el 6500 ft

Streams cut three massive natural bridges out of the sandstone in an area once near an ancient sea. There's a scenic 6-8 mi loop hike through the canyons below under the bridges which are striped with desert varnish. Campground full but boondocked on Deer Park, a BLM dirt road. (Bureau of Land Mgt)
