English Americans are Americans whose ancestry originates wholly or partly in England. In the 2017 American Community Survey, English Americans are of the total population.However, demographers regard this as a serious undercount, as the index of inconsistency is high and many if not most Americans from English stock have a tendency to identify simply as Americans or if of mixed European ancestry, identify with a more recent and differentiated ethnic group. In the 1980 Census, over 49 million Americans claimed English ancestry, at the time around 26.34% of the total population and largest reported group which, even today, would make them the largest ethnic group in the United States.

My Last Trip Day in State of Utah
In this last episode of my trip to the beautiful State of Utah, I am leaving my hotel room in early morning when sky is still dark and drive for forty five minutes from City of Moab to get to Canyonlands National Park for seeing the sunrise over canyon. The moment of sunrise over the canyon was breathtaking and spectacular. The peace was ruling the entire canyon. I’ve never had such an incredible feeling before. Canyonlands National Park is a great destination for hikers and visitors to find such incredible unique canyons formed over million years of erosion and rock formation. There are multiple destinations and trailheads to start a good day hike. One of the famous landmarks of Canyonlands National Park is Mesa Arch on top of a 500 feet (152 meter) cliff with the overlook of Buck Canyon. By looking through the arch, a great keyhole view of the White Rim country can be seen. During sunrise, a great reflection of sunlight will glow the bottom of arch which adds-up to its beauty.

Island in the Sky is another stop in Canyonlands National Park which gives a different overlook and perspective on Canyonlands National Park spectacular landscape and the Colorado River. This river as a masterpiece art creator, formed the canyons over million of the years.
While visiting that area, it would be a great idea to make a stop at Dead Horse Point State Park to have a great viewpoint at 2000 feet (600 meter) above a gooseneck in the Colorado River. This state park is a continues land from the Canyonlands National Park with less than twenty minutes driving distance.
As my last stop before I conclude my trip, I went to Arches National Park in Moab not too far from Canyonlands. The driving experience through the Arches National Park on Arches Scenic Drive is super amazing. The rock formations and arches spread over desert of Utah. There are several great hiking trails with great rewarding points. Landmarks such as Balanced Rock, The Devils Garden, and Delicate Arch are some to name.

In the afternoon, I hit the road to east for getting to Denver in Colorado since my return flight back home was from there.
