entrada
Way in, Spanish
Entrada is a Spanish word meaning entrance or entry, used in English primarily in the American Southwest for a dramatic natural gateway or passage into a landscape—particularly the rock formations of Utah and the Colorado Plateau.
The term also appears in historical contexts for Spanish military expeditions into new territory: Coronado's entrada into the American Southwest.
