And you got the jealously-guarded bonus point. I'm pretty slow on the uptake, as multiple clues were necessary before I finally got it. I suspect others refrained from taking a swing at a slow pitch right down the middle. Anyways, I'll post something shortly.

Bowtie, Needles, and Wilson??
But I cheated with technology and I've never been there. So I'll make up a new rule and tell you to go again.

Bowtie, Needles, and Wilson?? You have 2.5 out of 3, so not quite the trifecta. I know the first one by the name Corona, but it's also called Bowtie. The 2nd one you have in the correct district of a national park, but you need to be more specific with the name of the arch. And yes, Wilson is a very accessible arch just up a hill from the road. That's my hiking buddy Eddie under both Corona & Wilson. I'm standing well in front of the middle one. eta: It's up to the thread originator to create a new rule. I googled to get the last one so if you (or someone else) completes the trifecta, it's that person's turn with no stipulations.

And another thing, I forgot that Bowtie Arch is a different arch in the same ridge as Corona Arch. The image of Corona Arch actually comes up when Bowtie is googled. Below is a pic of Bowtie Arch. I highly recommend this fun hike, which I thought was just as good as nearby Arches National Park.

Sorry for the late response. Internet has been down due to the storms and tornadoes we've had here around Grapevine, TX. There is a trail arcoss the face and it has a very scary sounding name. What is the mountain range and trail name?

In my book it's your turn, but I don't make the rules here. Arbitration may be necessary. However, than can be avoided if you identify offtrail's pic.
