Overview

hike5.0adv

Hike down off the pavement and up to the hoodoo. Go to the left of it! Scamper down into a canyon then a few steps right and right back up. Follow a generally up & left course. Keep the arch in sight and the greenery to its left you'll claw up. On top don't trample shit but peek around and look back at your car. Go back down, right, toward the white slickrock then to the orange then go up right, steep. Continue down the other side a little to the left and then back out the canyon to the road.
