Square Butte (Arizona)
Square Butte is a sandstone summit located on Navajo Nation land, in Coconino County of northern Arizona. It is situated 35 miles (56 km) southeast of the town of Page, and east of Kaibito, where it towers over above the surrounding terrain as a landmark alongside Arizona State Route 98. Square Butte is known as "Tsé Dikʼání" in Navajo language, meaning "square rock." Its nearest higher neighbor is White Mesa, to the south. Precipitation runoff from Square Butte drains to northwest into Square Butte Wash or northeast into Potato Canyon, then ultimately Lake Powell, all part of  the Colorado River drainage basin. According to the Köppen climate classification system, Square Butte is located in an arid climate zone with hot, very dry summers, and chilly winters. Spring and fall are the most favorable seasons to visit. The top of Square Butte is composed of Entrada Sandstone including the Cow Springs Member, and it overlays Carmel Formation, all of which was deposited in the Jurassic period.
