Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.
A rare limestone natural arch (possibly a former cave passage or natural bridge) standing high in Lexington Canyon on the remote south side of Great Basin National Park. The arch is carved from carbonate rock rather than the sandstone typical of most Western arches, and flowstone at the opening supports a cave-origin interpretation.
