You will probably want to do a short loop type of trail. It will be crazy busy if weather is nice, so finding a place to camp may be difficult. If your wanting scenery Auxier Ridge trail #204 will give you very nice views. You can take that from the parking lot at the end of Tunnel Ridge Rd. It will follow a ridge line out past Haystack Rock to Courthouse Rock. From there you can head down in the valley #203 Auxier Branch Trail and cross over to Double Arch on the other side of the valley or camp along Auxier creek and then see Double Arch #201 the next day. You will see Double Arch on the next ridge while on Auxier Ridge. NOTE: Auxier Branch is the only water source for this hike! I think the whole loop is roughly 5-5.5 miles. On the way back from Double arch, if you still have time and energy, there are a couple of arches to see, Star Gap (which is a gem) and Arch of Triumph. You can take the loop in either direction, just remember the only water source is Auxier branch (creek) in the valley. Here is a link that will help with planning and have more details.
