The nearest town is
Moab,
Utah about to the southwest. The area is generally accessed from Fisher Towers Road off of
Route 128 which runs along the
Colorado River between
I-70 and
Route 191.
Castleton Tower is visible approximately to the southwest from different parts of the Fisher Tower's area. The Towers lie just south of a larger
mesa which they are emerging from on a
geological time scale. north of the main formation there is a tower which has only partway emerged from the mesa. The Towers are composed of three major fins of rock that run from the northeast closer to the mesa out to the southwest and into a desert valley. The fins are between long and separated from each other by about . Each fin contains multiple towers, a number of which have been named. The easternmost section of the northernmost fin is dominated by a tower known as the
King Fisher. The ridge line of the fin drops considerable before reaching the western formation called
Ancient Art.
Ancient Art is composed of four separate summits the most striking of which is the
cork screw summit. The Middle fin is split into two very distinct towers known as
Echo Tower in the east and
Cottontail in the west. The southernmost fin is best known for containing the Fisher Towers with the greatest elevation and prominence, a structure named
Titan Tower. The eastern portion of the southern fin is the less well known
Oracle which physically connects back to the mesa. The area has many other named structures, such as the
Cobra (which collapsed, presumably due to a lightning strike, sometime in the final week of July 2014) and the
Sundial, both found in between King Fisher and Echo Tower. Each consists of balanced rocks perched above smaller supports. Another example is the
Lizard Rock, a tower near the parking lot. == Rock climbing ==
