National Park Mystery Spot 28: A Natural Shape

The mystery spot is located in a unit of the National Park System.  Can you identify the mystery spot and tell which national park it's in?

No keystone you'll find, nor any mortar.
This shape is part of the natural order.

Fine and fragile? Soft and faint?
These are things it certainly ain't!

You must climb up high to see it up close.

You can watch a raven change sides here, quick as a flash.

Bonus clue, no extra charge: One of about 2,000 in this park.

    

  Be sure to check back with Traveler tomorrow for the answer and an explanation of the clues.

Congrats to Eric Nelson, who has honored steve2's point. Anybody else out there who's got this one figured out?   


 Delicate Arch , Arches National Park


Well done, dave. That makes three who've nailed this one.


Clearly in Arches; I'd go with delicate arch because you use irony and delicate arch isn't as delicate as landscape arch is now, for instance.  And, you are old enough (like me) to think that trail's a climb.  My alternative guess would be the unpublicized arch NW of Fiery Furnace.

Tomp2 and Richard Smith have figured it out. That makes five.
Aside to tomp2:  Your point is well taken. Maybe "climb" is a tad too strong for that trail. It did make me huff and puff, though, and I'm in pretty good shape for an Olde Pharte.
