Stevens Arch is a large natural arch located in Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument, Utah. The bridge has a span of 220 feet (67.06 metres), making it the fourteenth longest natural arch span in the United States as measured by the Natural Arch and Bridge Society.[1]
Stevens Arch can be accessed via an 8-mile round trip hike with a total elevation gain of about 1500 feet (457.2 m).[2]
The arch comprises Navajo Sandstone and stands above the Escalante River.[3] The arch is located in Escalante Canyon at its junction with Stevens Canyon, just upstream from Coyote Gulch.
