The 3 popular bridges can all be seen from the road, the hikes
are all very maintained, maybe too maintained, with perfectly
square stepping stones everywhere, it feels a little less natural,
but that is how most National Parks and Monuments feel. The
names of the bridges are all Native American, I think they are
Hopi Indian words. None of these bridges where called these
names by American Indians however, a white man named them all.
I really enjoyed the area, it was quick and easy, and actually
undercrowded. The Monument was well worth the stop.
What's the difference between a bridge and an arch? Bridges
have to be formed by rivers or streams, arches can be formed
by many methods.
