Unnamed Arch

Just across the canyon from the Sego Canyon rock art site, Sego Canyon, Grand County, Utah. It's in the Cretaceous Blackhawk Formation (Willis, Utah Geol. Min. Surv., Map 89, 198) and is evidently unnamed, without so much as an interpretive sign. I'm sure, tho, the local Native Americans had stories about it--I find it hard to imagine the proximity of the rock art is a coincidence!

Unnamed rock arch in sandstone directly across the road from the Sego Rock Art site. I'm sure the Native Americans had stories about it--I find it hard to believe the proximity of the rock art is a coincidence!--but there's not so much as an interpretive sign. The arch is in Cretaceous Blackhawk Formation, according to the mapping of Willis (Provisional Geologic Map of the Sego Canyon Quadrangle, Grand County, Utah, Utah Geol. Min. Surv. Map 89, 1986). You can walk up the drainage to directly below the arch (inset).
