First day hike is great, leads to a sweet arch. We came for the whole 15 mile trail and backpacked it, which I wouldn’t recommend to anyone unless they’re cool with bushwhacking and following the river the entire way. The trail was unkempt and at times impossible to follow. Bring water shoes and, if you’re backpacking during monsoon season, a way to let the silty water sit so your filter doesn’t get clogged.
