LeChee Rock is a 5,900-foot-elevation (1,800 m) sandstone feature located south of Lake Powell, in Coconino County of northern Arizona. It is situated nine miles (14 km) east-southeast of the town of Page, eight miles (13 km) east of the community of LeChee, and 7.5 miles (12.1 km) south of Tower Butte, on Navajo Nation land, where it towers over 900 feet (270 m) above the surrounding terrain as a landmark of the area. It can be seen from nearby Arizona State Route 98, or from as far away as Alstrom Point. LeChee (Łichíí) in Navajo language means red, referring to burgundy-colored leaves of a medicinal plant. The spelling for this geographical feature's name was officially adopted in 2004 by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, prior to that it was officially Leche-e Rock.
