These rock towers' names refer to Zeus, a god in Greek mythology, and Moses, an important prophet in several religious traditions. Zeus and Moses are composed of Wingate Sandstone, which is the remains of wind-borne sand dunes deposited approximately 200 million years ago in the Late Triassic. This formation is situated in Taylor Canyon, 3 mi (4.8 km) north-northeast of Upheaval Dome. Access to the towers is via the four-wheel-drive White Rim Road, and a spur road into Taylor Canyon (Canyonlands National Park backcountry permit required for access). The top of this geological formation rises 900 feet above the canyon floor at road's end, approximately one-half mile away. Precipitation runoff from Zeus and Moses drains into the nearby Green River via Taylor Canyon.","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeus_and_Moses"},"skitours":[],"id":3503897318,"data":{"_id":"3503897318","elevation":[{"id":"canyonlands-national-park-island-in-the-sky-district","nid":"20000005873932","name":"Canyonlands National Park - Island In The Sky District","type":"NP","level":1,"index":15,"total":17}],"prominence":[{"id":"canyonlands-national-park-island-in-the-sky-district","nid":"20000005873932","name":"Canyonlands National Park - Island In The Sky District","type":"NP","level":1,"index":7,"total":17}]},"canonicalUrl":"moses-gfha1","type":1,"description":"Zeus and Moses (also known as Moses and Zeus) are a pair of 500-foot-tall (150 m) sandstone formations located in the Island in the Sky District of Canyonlands National Park, in San Juan County, Utah, United States.
