Mount Kinesava

Mount Kinesava is a 7,285-foot (2,220 m) sandstone mountain summit located in Zion National Park, in Washington County of southwest Utah, United States.

[3] Mount Kinesava is located immediately west of Springdale, towering 3,400 feet (1,000 meters) above the town and the floor of Zion Canyon.

This desert climate receives less than 10 inches (250 millimeters) of annual rainfall, and snowfall is generally light during the winter.

[6] Stratification of sandstone deposits from vast dune fields laid down 175 to 200 million years ago can be seen exposed on the south aspect of the mountain.

Near the base is the Petrified Forest Member of the Chinle Formation, surrounded by landslide deposits.
