Guess the spot: Utah Edition

Looking down into Zion from around Kolob Reservoir.

Whoops, didn't see the previous posts. When you have an alert, it takes you to that particular post, and I need to remember to look below it.
 
nope!

I drop a broad hint: a very similar view (zoomed out) is on the cover of a book that probably a lot of us have on our shelves.

Ok here's the zoomed out view, no fair looking it up in the front of the book fi you don't know :)
 
I don't have that book, but I've sure gone down some interesting rabbit holes trying to figure this one out.
 
That isn't a strange, to me, perspective view of Monster and Washer Woman towers in Island district of CNP is it?
 
More specifically, the Pinnacle in Happy Canyon. The spot is worth the short hike from Sam's Mesa Road, great at either sunset or sunrise.

You're up!
 
This is out of focus, but in some ways that might help you ID it. Name the feature and, if you can, give its previous politically incorrect name (still found on the older maps).

There are more nipple names in Utah than China has... Oh is that non-PC? :)
Do you know the origin of the current name?

No idea who named it the Wickiup, though why is pretty obvious. I've also heard it called Mary's Nipple. No idea why nipples are non-PC since we all have 'em.

That's a beauty of an arch.
