Oct 25, 2018 — Starting from the Arch Canyon Trailhead, head into the canyon on a well-beaten trail until you get to a sign warning of illegal immigration, etc. Stay right, as left seems to go deeper into the canyon, and head up a steep but well-cairned trail to higher ground. Eventually, you'll get atop a mostly flat area with high grasses. There are cairned routes all over the place, but the one you want basically doubles back, staying parallel with the route you took up the steep gully. This will lead to a lookout point of Double Arch, and some cairns lead down a short gully and right to the base of the arch. I did a lot of unnecessary exploration because not only were there numerous social trails leading absolutely nowhere, Google Maps has "Double Arch" mislabeled. Overall, this is a nice route up to a lesser-visited arch in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument.
