Mount Majestic

Nature
Mount Majestic, also called Majestic Mountain, is a 6,956-foot Navajo Sandstone peak near the north end of Zion Canyon in Zion National Park, rising about 2,600 feet above the canyon floor and the North Fork Virgin River. Its double summit makes it a prominent feature of the canyon skyline among formations such as The Great White Throne, Observation Point, Angels Landing, and Cable Mountain. It is the parent peak of nearby Cathedral Mountain, separated by only 0.24 mile. Officially named in 1934, it reflects Zion’s characteristic Navajo Sandstone geology and cold semi-arid climate, with less than 10 inches of annual rainfall and generally light winter snow.
