| Hotel Rock | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hotel Rock proved to be a short but difficult trail. The trailhead is right next to the entrance to Arch Canyon. We left camp late that morning and began our ascent up the trail. This trail is non-stop obstacles and pretty intense. Steep rock ledges come one right after the other. Our Montero's did quite well especially Pedro's after we found out he was in four high until over halfway up the trail!!! (this was his first trip...) The difficulty was worth it once we made it to the end of the trail. The Anasazai ruins at the base of Hotel Rock are incredibly well preserved and you can walk right into them and explore. As a side note, for some reason, the way down seemed more difficult than the way up. |
