The grand view from the Jughandle Arch plateau.

Close-up view of the back side of the arch.

"The Center of the Universe" as seen from the east. Following the lowest-angle sections of slickrock, one can hike up to the center saddle without too much trouble.

Standing in the Center of the Universe, an isolated slickrock bowl hanging above the surrounding drainages. "Aires Butte" (peak 6492) is to the north (right) and "South Ariel Peak" is to the south (left).

Coming down steep slickrock slopes to the west. Take your time finding the easiest route down.
