Access to the second largest concentration of natural arches in the U.S. is accessible from this campsite.  BLM's web page describes the route this way: "This is a steep, strenuous undefined game trail. Travel up the canyon approximately 1.5 miles in the east drainage, steep ascent up the canyon to connect to the Arches Loop Trail."  NOTE: I think you would turn right when you reach the trail to proceed to the arches.  I've never attempted this route.  This route might be primarily for animals.

Looks like at campground on river right at mile 20.4 (also looks like ATV tracks and a tire)
