Description

Landscape Arch is the longest of the many natural rock arches located in the Arches National Park in the U.S. state of Utah. It was named by Frank Beckwith, leader of the Arches National Monument Scientific Expedition, who explored the area in the winter of 1933-1934 (The amusing story that the names of Delicate Arch and Landscape Arch were inadvertently exchanged due to a signage mixup by the Park Service is not factual). The Natural Arch and Bridge Society considers the Landscape Arch to be the longest natural arch in the world. The Society measured the span in 2004 at 290.1 ± 0.8 feet (88.4 m),[1] which is slightly longer than a measurement made by the Society in 2006 of Kolob Arch located in Zion National Park.
