Moonshine Wash route

Hey all,

This last Friday and Saturday a buddy of mine and I went down to Moonshine Wash and Colonade Arch. We had a great time at both. The roads are in great shape and there was no water at all in Moonshine. However, I have one question. When we got to the confluence of the east and west parts of Moonshine, we couldn't find the escape route up and out. We ended up hiking several miles down to a point where we could get out. Where is the escape route from Moonshine after you reach the bottom of the east fork? We plan on going back again soon with some scouts, but we don't want have to hike so far to get out. Thanks.

P.S. Sorry about not having any pics. The camera got left and forgotten in the car.

If so its here

This is the exit:

Here is a pic looking down it from near the top of the slickrock section.
