Hubbell Butte

Hubbell Butte is a 6,740 ft-elevation summit located in the eastern Grand Canyon, in Coconino County of northern Arizona, United States.

The butte is about 5.0 miles west of the Colorado River, as it flows south through Marble Canyon, and the butte lies in the Upper Lava Creek watershed.Hubbell Butte is composed of Supai Group units, sitting upon Redwall Limestone cliffs.

The west flank of Hubbell Butte is on a north section of Lava Creek, and is adjacent, north, to the ridgeline of Siegfried Pyre, with its prominence, and two adjacent sub-prominences.

The Lorenzo Hubbell Trading Post and Warehouse is his legacy.

Jupiter Temple is adjacent to Venus and Apollo Temples, southeasterly; Apollo and Venus Temples are upon the basement rocks (below the Great Unconformity), units of the Unkar Group, colorful and dipping at an angle below the Butte Fault, as the Colorado River, changes its south-course into the East Grand Canyon.
