Cobra Arch Expedition by A.G. "Looking at the West Clark Bench map, I planned our expedition near Cobra Arch. We had hoped to drive to the trail head, however, the road was washed out. We hiked there instead and dropped down toward Cobra Arch. We set up camp an hour before dusk. Next, we checked out some cool slot canyons right beyond our camp site. Everyone was excited to be so close to a wide variety of unusual geologic formations, many of which we had only seen in photographs. While we didn't find Cobra Arch, we did hike through sandstone formations then scrambled to the top and looked down into a 50 foot slot. We tried to climb down and still couldn't pass through. We had a go at it one last time and darkness was upon us. We cooked a delicious meal of quesadillos and spicy noodles with vegetables. We got to sleep by 9 pm. We felt accomplished and we all felt sufficiently tired!"
