The name was derived as a result of when a traveling minister had come upon the Walls of Jericho in the late 1800s, and was so captivated by the cathedral-like beauty that he declared it needed a biblical name, and the name stuck.

The hike we'll be journeying on is about 3.5 miles in length, one way, and is downhill most of the route into the gorge. That, of course, means that the hike back will be mostly uphill. It can be a strenuous hike, so wear comfortable shoes and take plenty of water and snacks. The trail is well marked but can also be muddy for days if it rains.

We will travel to the bottom of a 50-yard-wide limestone bowl and look up at 200-foot-tall cliffs on each side.

We will be crossing several streams via some cool little wooden bridges....
