Coverage of the collapse of Wall Arch in UtahMedia outlets across the United States and some in various parts of the globe have reported on the collapse of Utah's iconic rock formation known as "Wall Arch." The arch was one of the most popular and most photographed arches of Arches National Park, which is located near Moab. Park officials believe the arch collapsed during the evening Monday, August 4th. No one reported seeing the arch fall. Wall Arch is not to be confused with the more widely recognized "Delicate Arch," which has been used as an icon for Utah license plates and other signage and memorabilia. Arches National Park preserves over 2,000 natural sandstone arches, as well as many other unusual rock formations.
