Brady Peak

Brady Peak is an 8,121-foot (2,475 m)-elevation summit located in the Grand Canyon, in Coconino County of northern Arizona, United States.

[4] The summit spire of Brady Peak is composed of cream-colored Permian Coconino Sandstone.

[5] This sandstone, which is the third-youngest of the strata in the Grand Canyon, was deposited 265 million years ago as sand dunes.

Below this Coconino Sandstone is reddish, slope-forming, Permian Hermit Formation, which in turn overlays the Pennsylvanian-Permian Supai Group.

Precipitation runoff from this feature drains east into the Colorado River via Nankoweap Creek.
