Mesa Arch Sunrise Winter Panorama - Island In The Sky - Canyonlands National Park - Moab, Utah

Join with me to save nature, one photograph at a time. Yes, it's true. With every item purchased, we plant ten trees in countries ravaged by deforestation. This project is saving the planet and empowering others to transform their communities through environmental, economic, and spiritual growth. Join the movement.

On a cold February morning near Moab, Utah, the sun failed to peak through the clouds, so I decided to climb above Mesa Arch and stand a few feet from the 2000 foot cliff to capture this image. The panorama is made up of 7 different shots and represents about a 170 degree angle. Enjoy.

Canyonlands National Park is a U.S. National Park located in southeastern Utah near the town of Moab and preserves a colorful landscape eroded into countless canyons, mesas and buttes by the Colorado River, the Green River, and their respective tributaries. The park is divided into four districts: the Island in the Sky, the Needles, the Maze, and the rivers themselves. While these areas share a primitive desert atmosphere, each retains its own character. Two large river canyons are carved into the Colorado Plateau by the Colorado River and Green River.
