The Nautilus (Nautilus Rock) is the name of a beautiful formation of wind and water-eroded Page sandstone in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah. It's located at the edge of a small tributary ravine near the Paria River, 9 miles northeast of the equally photogenic Wave.
The Nautilus is a formation in rock not far from the White House campground. This is close to the BLM Paria Contact Station, on HWY 89 in southern Utah. The location used to be a secret, but now you can stop at the contact station and the ranger will give you directions.
