Description Suggest change

This is along the banks of the Arkansas River near Seidel's Suckhole.

Getting There Suggest change

"The exit for Hecla Junction is located on U.S. Highway 285 about a mile north of the CO Highway 291 exit, between mile markers 135 and 136. Turn east onto County Road 194. Drive 2.4 miles to the end of the road, and you’re at Hecla Junction. Caution, this is a narrow, fairly steep (12% grade) dirt road, with quite a bit of traffic. Low gear is recommended on the descent".

From the boat ramp, hike south along the Hecla Junction trail on the river right about 1 mile.
