Titan Tower, the highest of these imposing spires, rises 900 feet above Professor Valley. A 4.4-mile roundtrip trail skirts the bases of the towers for a close look (Titan is the third one). The trail ends above Onion Creek at a panorama of the Colorado River, Castle Valley, Fisher Mesa, and the Book Cliffs. From Moab, head north on US 191 and turn right on UT 128 before the Colorado River bridge, follow the Colorado River upstream for 21 miles (to near Milepost 21), then turn right on a dirt road and follow it 2.2 miles to the trailhead.

Active and AdventureExpert Tips & Helpful Hints
  • Fisher Towers are named not for a person, but because they contain fissures.
  • The Fisher Towers are composed of Moenkopi and Cutler sandstones.
  • Carry water. In summer be sure to get an early start as the trail's western exposure turns it into an oven on summer afternoons.
