We certainly wouldn't hike a slot if there was any chance of rain in the forecast.

This may be a dumb question but having never been there myself, I do wonder.

And your mention of Grosvenor's Arch put a smile on my face as well. I've hiked up to the top of that Arch twice. If your back that way and facing the Arch take the trail to the right around behind and you will find a reasonably easy climb up to the top. All the best to you folks...........<br />Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-976785102152524635.post-37338725586727881782016-09-09T07:34:17.411-06:002016-09-09T07:34:17.411-06:00You are very welcome!

How sweet to have such a fond memory of Wreck's having fun:) We went down to do this hike, only to find out that the road was closed and there was way too much water for hiking. Oh, well, one of these times we'll be there at the right time. We've tried three times and from both directions to get to the Grosvenor Arch, also. I guess fall is the time for our next visit:)John and Pam (ohtheplacestheygo.wordpress.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10853924678665624403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-976785102152524635.post-49306486992849497592016-09-08T16:34:11.459-06:002016-09-08T16:34:11.459-06:00Yes they do Jodee...Wrecks was such a sweet and lo...Yes they do Jodee...Wrecks was such a sweet and loyal pup!
