This was a hike in the Supes where Eagles fear to tread. Turtles don't fair much better as neither were on the summit register. JJ could spend a day out here climbing into the arches. ;) I believe these arches are accessible. The first order of business was a side trip to a cave with a wall. It wasn't much to see and the terrain was more rugged than it looked but worth a look. On the way back to Tortilla Pass I decided I had enough water to go for La Barge Mountain summit. The wind was gusting but this kept me cooler than if it were calm. There's some bush and some scrambling on the route but nothing too crazy. I missed the balcony entrance on the way up but once I saw the balcony it was easy to find the entrance on the hike out. My Jeep was the only vehicle at the Woodbury trailhead as far as I saw. Forest road 172 is about as good as it gets so if you're planning on hiking out here now's the time.
