The arch received it's present name from the leader of the 1933-34 Arches National Monument Scientific Expedition, Frank Beckwith.
In the past years, three slabs of rock have fallen from the arch, causing the park to close the trail that once led underneath this iconic arch.
If you look closely, you can see discoloration in sections of the arch, which would point to weaker spots.
