It’s not super easy to follow this trail, as you walk across pure slickrock. You can also follow the white painted markers on the slick rock to help guide you. There will also be 9 signs stating Uranium Arch. I've linked the Gaia GPX in the website.

I was impressed with Uranium Arch! I recommend going both above and below to appreciate its size. The best part we didn't see another person!
