The trailhead to this remote arch is on a sandy road require high clearance 4 wheel drive vehicles. Road may be impassable when wet.

Take Salt Valley Road and turn left on sandy road. Due to very deep sandy hills, travel is suggested to be north to south.

Due not go alone if you wish to attempt this route. And bring plenty of water. The remoteness is truly beautiful, but can be treacherous.
