Tucupit Point is a prominent sandstone pinnacle in the Kolob Canyons area of Zion National Park in Washington County, Utah, United States.
The formation lays off of Taylor Creek Trail,[1] and rises with a prominence of 138 feet.[2] The pinnacle - visible from U.S. Route 40 to the west - has been the subject of numerous photographs. American artist Thomas Moran viewed the pinnacle in 1873 while travelling south from Salt Lake City, with the artist later rendering a famous watercolor of the feature.[3] The pinnacle was then named "Colburn's Butte" after Justin Colburn, a correspondent for the New York Times travelling with Moran; it would later be renamed Tucupit Point, "Tucupit" being the Paiute word for wildcat.[4]
