Dark Angel is a natural sandstone rock formation in Arches National Park, Utah.
The formation rises 150 feet (45 m) above the salt valley and was named after the dark colored sandstone that makes up the pillar.
[1] About 10,000 years ago, the Ancestral Pueblo and Fremont culture settled in the region known today as the Four Corners, cultivating certain plants such as Yucca.
[2] Around 700 years ago, in part due to climate change and colonization, the Fremont people began to migrate away from the region, followed afterwards with the Pueblo.
The path leaves from the end of the Devil's Garden Trail at a junction just south of Double O Arch.
