Fisher Towers, Utah






Along Highway 128, about 20 miles northeast of intended destination, Moab, we found ourselves back into a storm system. As we rounded a bend in the road we came upon some dramatic views of Fisher Towers along the Colorado River.

This rock formation, like the entire area, is a deep red with shades of deep purple and occasionally greens due to various mineral in the rock with iron being responsible for the reds.

These formations are a favourite among local rock climbers.
