Or Tukunikivatz Arch. haven't heard the name above, but it does fit. Funny play on words.
Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

Don't know who originally came up with the name Tukuhnikivista Arch, but that's how Chris Moore spells it in one his guide books and that's how F.A. Barnes spells it in two of his books. Barnes writes that " . . . it was given its odd name because Mount Tukuhnikivatz, in the distant La Sal Mountains, is easy to frame through the arch's opening." He also points out that one end of the span resembles a horse's head.
