What you'll see 🌄 Big views🕳️ Cave or arch

Up out of Grand Wash on switchbacks, then across open slickrock following cairns to the rim of the arch. Unusually, the trail ends on the arch itself rather than under it. Named for the outlaw Butch Cassidy, who is said to have used these canyons.

Tips
The last section is cairned slickrock with unfenced drops - keep children close. The Grand Wash road is closed whenever rain threatens because the wash floods.
