Yes. Very few can see what I'm looking at. The hike/climb to the arch is on my hit list.

Yep! I finally took a photo of it and then blew it up. Once I did that I could see if every time. It's easier to see from the Parus Trail than from the Museum.

Shaun.. this hike is awesome!!!

Sure looks so. I'm assuming that now is not the time to hike this, too hot. Probably save it for fall/spring.

The hike is pretty sweet. I did it over spring break in 2007. There's one part where you have to rockclimb up a chimney, but I'm sure there's gotta be another way. We went to the arch, and took a few pictures- it's way sweet and pretty delicate for how long it is. On the way back we saw two bighorn sheep- a momma and baby. Going back toward the chimney, we noticed them down below us and we know they couldn't have climbed it! There's gotta be another way.

Sorry- I'd post pics, but they're on a CD at my house.

I loved this hike as well! The hike to that arch is actually the first hike I ever did in Zion, which wasn't "canyoneering" specific! Sadly, I lost my camera in Hidden Canyon the next day (along with all my photos of the hike), but my friend did send me a photo he took of me trailing the rope up that chimney! It even looks like I know what I'm doing!!! :mrgreen:

It's canyon season now in Zion, but it you want a two-for I'd be game.

Heaps, Imlay, or Full Left Fork plus Crawford Arch.

Hey, I'm leaving for Zion right after work today! But, I'm gonna be taking some friends who've never been to Zion before. We're going to do Angels landing I think on Sat., then a hike up Echo from the bottom. Keyhole & Pine Creek on Sunday.

If anyone's around to join us for dinner at Oscars on Sat. that would be fun!
