Description
Moderately easy trail descends to cross a dry stream bed. Then an uphill trail becomes progressively steeper. An exposed ledge leads to the cave which has a natural window and distant views of the red rocks. If the exposed ledge is too much, multiple tracks lead to the top of the rock with great all around views.
