- Title: The Juniper Below
- Description: At its thinnest point on the right, the Landscape Arch span is only 18 feet wide and 6 feet thick. In 1958, three young men made what was claimed to be the second known ascent of Landscape Arch, using ropes and other climbing gear, after which they walked across (Ouellette, 1958). This crossing was made with the permission of a park ranger, but such permission is no longer given, for the safety of both the arch and of would-be climbers. Juniperus Osteosperma, or Utah Juniper, is the only species from the conifer family represented at Arches National Park. These shrubs or small trees can grow to 20 feet tall, like this example, located near the base of Landscape Arch. The oldest Utah juniper in the state has been aged at more than 1275 years.
