Wild Horse Window


Wildhorse Window is a large natural bridge associated with a cave in the San Rafael Reef, just south of Temple Mountain. The bridge is massive and difficult to photograph, but very impressive when you see it in person. You need moderate route finding skills as you cross open desert country to get to the window.

The trailhead overlooks Temple Wash. Follow the obvious trailhead down into Temple Wash and then climb up the far side. On top, look west and you'll see the large cave, which contains the Window. The cave/bridge is also know as the Eyes of Sinbad. Hike cross-country to the Window.
