Katie is absolutely "breathless" when she visits the otherworldly Arches National Park, which is described as a "red-rock wonderland."
Both Katie and Jordan bring the same facts about the geologic formations to this podcast, which means they must be true, right?
Arches National Park contains 2,000 natural stone arches and the park has the highest concentration of them in the world. Katie wants to do an arch audit to see how accurate that number is.
Jordan tells Katie the alternative names for the beloved, iconic "Delicate Arch" and also the names of other formations throughout the park, like "Dark Angel", "Three Penguins", and most unfortunately, "The Phallus".
Jordan shares his stupidest travel mishap and Katie says he is "horn happy".
