Wilson Arch on the Hook and Ladder

33 miles
   The gang staged at Hook and Ladder at County Road 114,   just off Hwy 191 south of Moab, 29 miles, or north or Monticello, 24 miles. Drive in 1.2 miles to a large staging area with a toilet. We headed east to Trail #1, and taking the new trail around a mountain on trail #3/ #9 and up #1, #4 and trail #15 to Wilson Arch.
