More photos of this nice arch can be found here. 200 meters north of this arch, you can find a mushroom rock at a higher elevation. This is the most elevated area of Tin-Kani site. From here you have a spectacular view around the area, specially of the Tissouar bowl. The mushroom rock is also the key to finding ALG-194 (Surprise Arch) nearby.
