Jacob’s Chair

 

An unexpected find on the east side of UT-95 about 12 miles south of where the highway crosses the Colorado River. It is composed of red sandstone towering to 6,775 feet above sea level and roughly 600 feet above the surrounding terrain. It is not named for the biblical Jacob but rather for Jacob Adams, a cattleman in the area, who lost his life crossing the White Creek in the area of White Canyon.
