| no partners | | Tower Arch is apparently the arch that formed the impetus for the park, though it is one of the least visited arches because it is accessed via dirt road and is off the beaten path a bit. you can drive closer to the arch via a 4x4 road, but the official trailhead is accessible via sedan when not wet/muddy via the alternate dirt road.
Although we had 4wd, we wanted to hike the full trail, which goes by the lovely "marching men" formation on a fin ridgeline along the way.
We saw no one on the hike in. There were a few people at the arch itself, but we mostly had the trail and the arch to ourselves.
Tower arch is a lovely specimen, and I recommend a visit to ditch the crowds at busier times of the year. |
