Description

This is the small, but prominent formation on the north side of the High Peaks Trail which looks, surprisingly,
like an anvil.

Getting There

From the junction with the Rim Trail follow the High Peaks Trail uphill and west for about 0.5mi. This is the first
formation you reach on the north side of the trail about 100 yards past the Carousel.
