Unimproved Road
Overview
About This Attraction
A creek edges rolling hills framed by Utah Juniper and Pinyon Pine forest, creating stark visual contrasts where the 2013 wildfire burned the landscape black and grey. The 11-mile unimproved dirt road deteriorates significantly, with extreme washouts forcing visitors to park at the final fork and hike the remaining trail to Lexington Arch. This BLM-managed road provides the only vehicle access to the arch, located outside the park boundary.
