The second day we went into Arches National Park we saw several more of the more than 2,000 arches claimed to be in the park. Then we also went on a trail where you had to purchase a special permit to hike the Firey Furnace. A ranger was there to check that each visitor had appropriate footwear and water supply.
Looking up from under the arch.

If a person is a bit claustrophobic, this would not be the best trail for you.
This is our group headed into a narrow crevice.
We made it through! Pictured from left to right (facing the camera) is our older daughter Kristin, rising second grader grandson Logan, rising fourth grader grandson Hunter, and Bonnie
One thing very deceiving about this hike is the name Firey Furnace suggests it will be very hot but it was very comfortable because most of it was in the shade.
Looks like you've had some great hiking weather!
