After receiving concerned messages, Valley of Fire staff has confirmed that the arch within the unnamed park feature, frequently referred to by the public as “Windstone Arch” or “Windstone Cave,” has given way. Since the arch previously encompassed a large, deep crack and many smaller ones throughout its structure, it is unknown whether it simply collapsed with time and frequent traffic or was purposely vandalized. (Included in this post are photos of the arch taken in 2013 by Casey Jarvis showing the cracks)
The entire arch was found in pieces nearby. (also pictured)
For people who have never seen the arch in person, we should note that many photos make the area appear to be quite large. The small 'cave' where this feature was contained is large enough for an adult to climb into, but not large enough to stand up in.
We ask that visitors be gentle with the landscape, especially arches of all sizes, and remember that even features able to withstand many, many years of natural forces are still often not strong enough to handle the repeated pressure of human activity.
