Named after the famous actor John Wayne, this point is near Lookout Point but instead faces east-southeast.

From this viewing point, the mittens and northern buttes can be seen. The views from Lookout Point are the most well-known in Monument Valley.

These three spires are best viewed from the John Ford Point area, where they can be most easily recognized. The smallest of the spires, which is in the center, has a rock that sits on it. The large spire on the southern end looks like a person when viewed from the John Ford Point area.

This viewing point was featured in several Western films. You can get a picture of yourself at this point – standing on a horse, just like it was in the films. At John Ford Point, there are several buildings, making this one of the more developed parts of the park – it's a just a rough dirt road to get there.

This butte is named after a miner in the area who died while mining. He worked with Mitchell, who also got an outcrop named after him.
