A mile hike off the main road out to Picacho State Park. Arch is in a wash between two hills where the wash narrows. The arch has a height of about six feet and is about eight feet wide. A great place to take a break and have lunch after the long hike. Arch was caused over the years by water running through the wash removing the smaller material. Follow the animal trail after crossing the big wash. Bring plenty of water, it's in the desert! Look around is someone watching you?
