Quick Facts

Scenic View/Photo Spot

This feature is best seen when driving downhill from Bread Loaves. Often the history of named formations are lost in time. Is King on the Throne named after a feature that resembles a stone king? Or is it named after Ted King, a local rancher who once used a corral just south of this rock?
