Continue past the falls, and you can hike what feels like a wide slot canyon at times. This trail isn't always easy to follow and you have cross the creek in several places, but you are rewarded at the end with a view of a nice arch.

       We hiked up 4 miles, guessing from the map we had 2 more to go, so it’s close to 6 to the arch.
      Nice hike. We’ll come back another time, when we have more time.

       About two miles in, there’s a water hole that you have to swim or rock climb to get passed. Otherwise you’ll have to turn back around. So beautiful!!!!
