Hey Don,

I have never been to either Arches or Canyonlands. Steve Kossack recently sent me a DVD to review on Canyonlands. I have not watched it yet (I just watched his Death Valley DVD)..however, if it is like the other two of his that I have seen, I am sure it will be very good. If you don't get any answers here that you feel are helpful, you might want to consider his DVD.

Cheers
James
