Found this arch while looking for several geocaches in the area. Made of bentonite clay and layers of limestone. See some great examples of identical eroded material at the nearby Cathederal Gorge State Park. There is also a great spring/swimming hole (Panaca) to the NW...look for the clump of trees. I call it teapot arch because from a distance in the South (from town) it looks like a teapot with the two smaller arches as the handles. The main arch is about 10-15 ft at its highest point.
