Delicate Arch Hike
The Trailhead of the Delicate
Arch Hike.
Near the trailhead is a pioneer
cabin of the Wolfe family.
The entire trail is well marked
and easy to walk on.
After at least 500 feet on the
ledge we approach the arch.
To our left is a canyon cliff.
Near the arch we have a very
long ledge to travers.
Soon we come to a huge boulder
to climb.  From this point we walk
on solid rock.
The trail includes a staircase.
