Chautaqua Trailhead in Boulder 6am

This is principally a hike up to Royal Arch with the possibility of scrambling up to the top of the arch. You have the option of enjoying the sunrise and just chilling at the Royal Arch or you may opt to add a little bit of spice to your morning.

The scramble is maybe 150' up to the top of the arch. Once at the top, the only way down is to down-scramble. Don't attempt this scramble if you are not confident you can descend it.
