Crawford Arch is a very narrow free standing arch located on the northwest face of Bridge Mountain high above the Zion Canyon floor. The route, if you can call it one, is very rugged and requires special techniques in climbing and orienteering. Although this is not a hike that we guide, we thought you might enjoy some pictures of a recent trip to the arch!
The arch is approximately 120 ft long and 3 feet wide at its most narrow. 99% of park visitors drive right by this arch, never knowing its there.
