Masonic Temple, Mountain summit in Grand Canyon, US
The Masonic Temple rises 1,904 meters above sea level in Coconino County, featuring steep limestone cliffs and sandstone formations along its slopes.
George Wharton James named this geological formation in 1908 after observing the angular walls beneath Dutton Point resembled masonic symbolism.
The summit forms part of the Grand Canyon National Park, representing geological processes that shaped the Colorado Plateau over millions of years.
Climbers reach the summit through class 4 routes, requiring technical skills to navigate the 4,000-foot elevation gain from the Colorado River.
The formation stands between three major canyons: Hakatai Canyon to the west, Burro Canyon to the south, and Muav Canyon to the east.
