Candlestick Tower (B&W) at Canyonlands (Island in the Sky) National Park, Moab, Utah 2022

Details best viewed in Original Size.

Candlestick Tower is a 450-foot-tall (140m) sandstone butte rising from its conical base and located in the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park, in San Juan County, Utah. Its descriptive name comes from its resemblance to a candlestick. Candlestick Tower is composed of Wingate Sandstone and is the remains of wind-borne sand dunes deposited approximately 200 million years ago in the Late Triassic. The top of this geological formation rises 1,400 feet (427m) above the White Rim Road in approximately one mile. Precipitation runoff from Candlestick Tower drains into the nearby Green River.
