Mount Spry
Mount Spry[2] is a small 5,720 ft mountain summit made of Navajo Sandstone in Zion National Park in Washington County of Utah, United States. Officially named in 1934, it honors William Spry (1864-1929), the third governor of Utah. The nearest higher peak is The East Temple, 0.34 miles (0.55 km) to the east.[1] Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into tributaries of the North Fork Virgin River.
