Where Arches National Park, Utah
When 1992
Photographer Joel Sartore

"On [U.S. Bureau of Land Management] land near Arches National Park, the living desert crust takes a constant beating from mountain bikers, who have chosen this area in Utah as their own special paradise. Thus damaged, it may never recover."

—From "Federal Lands: New Showdowns in the Old West," February 1994, National Geographic magazine
