Hype:
The Cheesebox is a proud tower visible for a long stretch of Highway 95,
near Fry canyon. The tower, with it's Navajo sandstone summit block is
very unique. The summit block is about 5 m ( 17 ft ) high, split in two, with the
top being about as large as a big kitchen table. Although the climbing
to reach the summit is loose, and not recommended for it's own sake,
the views of Cheesebox Canyon, White Canyon, and the surrounding area
are the best around.
