Dutchman's Arch

A couple of friends and I went to the San Rafael Swell area in central Utah looking for this arch. It took a bunch to find it but this is it. It can be seen from I-70 about 100 miles west of Grand Junction, CO but I had never noticed it until I visited it. We had to wander around in the desert driving on trails that were so deep into the soft sand that I couldn't even open the doors on my truck. We accessed it by driving through a culvert under the freeway with about 6" clearance on each side of my mirrors, one of which I ripped off when I hit a tree with it later that evening. But we sure had lots of fun. LYLE
