Rainbow Natural Bridge
Rainbow
Bridge National Monument
Rainbow
Bridge, the world's largest natural bridge, is considered a sacred place by many
Native Americans. To the Navajo, rainbows represent guardians of the universe.
This natural wonder nestles among canyons carved by streams en route to the
Colorado River from Navajo Mountain's north flank. Until the formation of Lake
Powell, this was one of the most remote and inaccessible regions in the
contiguous United States. Today the bridge is accessible by boat.
