Description

The Sun King Tower is a very prominent feature of the Secret Canyon Skyline, and home to some adventurous lines. This 175' tower complex is hard to miss and a section of the summit has a mysterious crowned looking "face" feature with two huge huecos for the eyes.

Getting There

From the Kodachrome Spire Area, hike west just below formations, and scramble up into wide amphitheateresque area. You will see the East Face of the tower which is cleaved in two by a large crack system.
