"Cradling Wall Arch, in Memoriam"
At Arches National Park near Moab, Utah, the “Wall Arch” cradles a conifer.

McKinney in 1948, “Wall Arch” was a free standing arch in the Slickrock member of the Entrada Sandstone formation. The opening beneath the span was 71 feet wide and 33½ feet high. It ranked 12th in size among the over 2,000 known arches in the park.
