Poison Spider can be run as a loop that goes to Little Arch and 2 great overlooks or it can be run as the first part of the Big Three: Poison Spider/Golden Spike/Gold Bar Rim. This map includes part of Golden Spike, the .gpx file has the Big Three plus Rusty Nail. The waypoints correspond to the ones listed in Charles Wells' Guide to Moab, UT Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive Trails, Second Edition and are labeled as follows:
The Waterfall
Great views of the Behind the Rocks area
The Wedgie
Little Arch, the Moab Rim trail parking lot is below
The Wind Cave is short hike from Little Arch
This overlook taking off at waypoint 2107 has very little room to turn around and is best done with a small group. If you are lucky you will see insane mountain bikers riding the Portal Trail on the narrow ledge below you.
Great views from the second overlook. Lots of parking there too!
