Description 

This knob is visible on the southwest side of 89A while still on the southeast rim of Marble Canyon. It's a spire separate from the rest of the rim, maybe a few hundred yards from the bridge (see "topo"). The rock quality is sharp but mostly solid.

Getting There 

From Bitter Springs head north on 89A for about 13 miles. Marble Canyon is the huge empty space under Navajo Bridge. Can't miss it. Would be fun to explore from river level, too.
