Arch Canyon Rim, Moab, UT

Long Canyon Road and Four Arch Canyon Rim, Moab, UT


 

Last year, I went into Four Arch Canyon and visited Crisp Hole. In Four Arch Canyon, I did not spot all four arches. So this time, we wanted to see, whether we can find Shadow Arch from the rim above Four Arch Canyon. I checked the topo maps and saw, that there are two trails going off Long Canyon Rd. and dead end on the south and north side of Four Arch Canyon high above on the rim. This was a moderately easy trail at the time, we drove it.
