Approach map for Gertch's Arch. All of the lines show cairn-marked, largely cat's-class-free trails. Starting from Topp Hut, the blue line is the Gertch's Folly trail and the yellow lines are two equally good options for reaching Gertch's Arch.

Gertch's Arch as seen from just south of the approach trail. Note that from the approach trail itself (blue to orange here http://www.mountainproject.com/v/111538484), the Arch will be hidden behind a foreground rock formation. To get to the Arch, either scramble over the foreground stuff (3rd/4th) or take a right into the gully and walk the south side of the foreground stuff.
Another view of the Gertch's Arch roof from the base of the rock.
