Bo, pretty darn close! We'll need to get Tanya and head out to this, the canyon looked awesome and pretty accessible for 4WD. Maybe that guy and his wife from Parowan would join us?

Kurt, we were typing at the same time. It is up Johnson Canyon and about 10 miles SE. No rope work to access the floor, there aare supposed to be ruins in the area.

It's in Johnson Canyon, can't remember just where. Saw it from the road. They are similar, so I wondered if they were the same shot from different sides. |

Thanks, Stan, hadn't seen that one.
Ours was about 10 miles in from the road on a not often used side spur. The fellow that took us there was sent by a friend and told about ruins. He never found the ruins but did find this arch. His friend said "oh yeah, that too" Gotta love the locals.
I added to your post on Montezuma, Jeff.
