EdBannister,
That looks like the Navaho Sandstone in the San Rafael Swell near Sinbad Country.
Sandstone is just the best!

I went back and labeled locations, and will continue to do so.

I think there is a near endless number of unclimbed formations in southern Utah and Northern Arizona.

Bryce Canyon is accessed via state route 12, east of Bryce is a place called Kodachrome Basin, wandering south from Kodachrome basin is a dirt road that sometimes is passable with a passenger car, and sometimes is not passable with anything. The BLM lady told me after days of mud creating rain "if you get stuck out there nobody is coming to get you." that is the Cottonwood Canyon Road.
driving southeast road 440 branches off to the east to Grosvenor Arch. Just a pitch high, but i do not think any climb there has ever been reported. The Cottonwood road roughly follows the Paria gulch/river and crosses it at one point before continuing south to 89 halfway between Kanab and Page, AZ. https://stateparks.utah.gov/parks/kodachrome-basin/map/

Kodachrome Basin has many spires, and many rangers, i did not inquire or climb.


Has anyone climbed "Finger Rock?" A spire next to the Colorado River halfway between Lee's Ferry and Glen Canyon Dam?
it always seemed the perfect climber's plum because it looks like it's name.
