Guess the spot: Utah Edition

You got it though, it's Stevens. I'm new to this game and wasn't sure if this one was gonna be easy or hard. I was curious if people would be familiar with this route.

Great contribution, not the first time a spot was posted by someone, from a place that I had actually been in, and yet I couldn't recognize it. Why we never tire of southern Utah!

some places I visit stick in my brain forever, others are just gone, even later the same day, as my family will tell you based on the number of times I've missed a critical turn on the home stretch of a day hike :)
 
well I don't know this location but it has a Capitol Reefy vibe so I'm going to throw out lower Spring Canyon
 
Pectol's Pyramid? @WasatchWill is definitely the BCP member I associate most with Capitol Reef, and I believe Ephraim Pectol is the person he's related to through his wife.
 
It honestly looks like a non-traditional angle (usual approach) of Golden Throne but I feel dumb posting this....

Shouldn't feel dumb, it has the same layering as looking up at Golden Throne from within Capitol Gorge. Getting closer....

…so it isn’t Ferns Nipple?

Unnamed. Here is a view upcanyon from a mile or so downcanyon of the above pic. (pics are a few years apart). I guess I should have mentioned, "name the canyon"

Hmmm... so I guess it isn't Grand Wash then... kind of looks like it, which it should because you are in Cap Reef!
 
is there a part of Cohab that looks like this? it's been forever since I was in there and don't remember at all
 
travel south. Aclarification. When I said "unnamed' I was referring to the pinnacle. This canyon is named on all maps.

This canyon features a couple nice narrows:

Looks like a bit of Sheets.

Just a little! You're up @Michael. Each time I look through Sheets pics I realize how interesting and unknown it seems to remain. A little dryfall grotto on the north side about 4 miles up from Notom TH has some reliable water as well as often somewhere in the wash at the chinle/wingate margin (I've seen dry and wet). Someday I'll loop it with Oak Creek or maybe Pleasant though Pleasant lower an upper I've spent a good amount of time in.
 
This is the upper part of a long drainage with multiple and huge potholes. This drainage is unnamed and bordered by a prominent canyon in the north and a very scenic one in the south.
Name one of the canyons.
