Rock of Ages loop hike

Did a trip as described in Portland Hikers Field Guide, other than Oneonta ford was too high to cross safely - had to bushwhack along E side to where trail crossed back to our side. The arch was fun, as well as Devils Backbone. Saw the first Indian Paintbrush there. There was snow in places between upper Horsetail and Bell Creek junctions, but even there it was mostly gone.

Can't seem to upload trip photos - you can see them here: https://picasaweb.google.com/103800903529830096354/RockOfAgesArchLoop
