Tritle Peak

Tritle Peak is an 8,388-foot (2,557 m) prominence adjacent Roosevelt Point, on the East Rim of the (East Kaibab Plateau). It is located in far eastern Grand Canyon, of Northern Arizona. The peak is only about 0.4 miles (0.64 km) northeast of Roosevelt Point on an eroded ridgeline, and it is a very short caprock remainder of Coconino Sandstone cliffs upon Hermit Shale slopes. The entire ridge is a bright dark-burnt-red from the Hermit Shale, and sits on a ridgeline-platform of Supai Group unit 4, the Esplanade Sandstone.
