View From The Saddle On Cathedral Rock. Cathedral Rock Trail Ascends One Of The Most Recognizable Rock Formations In The Heart Of Red Rock Country. Many Visitors Hike The First Quarter Mile To Enjoy The Fantastic Views From The First Ledge, Where The Trail Meets Templeton Trail. From Here, The Trail Becomes As Much A Rock Climb As A Hike, Requiring Non-technical Scrambling Up Rock Faces And Ledges To Make It To The Final Ascent To The Top. The Saddle Between Two Spires Offers Spectacular Views. The Unmaintained Trail Explores The Lava And Spires At The Top. Photo By Deborah Lee Soltesz, February 5, 2014.
