This lone spire is not far from the Yei Bi Chei Spires. If you look at the Yei Bi Chei Spires from the south, the Totem Pole is a lone spire that is a few hundred yards left of the other spires; looming behind the Totem Pole is Spearhead Mesa, while relatively flat terrain is behind Yei Bi Chei Spires.
The Totem Pole is a pillar or rock spire found in Monument Valley. It is a highly eroded remnant of a butte.

These spires – which are next to Totem Pole Spire – are organized in a crescent-like shape. "Yei Bi Chei" is a Navajo term that refers to a particular special event that the locals used to do that involved dancing. The Yei Bi Chei spires can, particularly from the south, look like a group of dancers.
There is a spring near a sand dune in this part of Monument Valley.
This point overlooks the Sand Springs region of the park. The overlook point is near a riverbank. However, the area is also surrounded by rocks, so viewers will be looking up for rock formations at this overlook and not down. At Yei Bi Chei Point, the best views are not directly in front of you, where the country is more or less flat; for the best views, drive to the point and look behind you (west).
It looks like a dragon when viewed from the north and a ghost when viewed in the sky from the west. It is south of Flying Eagle and there are a few traditional Navajo hogans just south of the Sleeping Dragon. Parts of the Sleeping Dragon resemble the toadstools, but the cliffs around it and a large gash in the butte's southern side give its identity and location away.
This large mesa looks like the letter "E" when viewed from the sky. It marks the northeastern boundary of the Eastern Monument Valley rock formations, and all of its three prongs are south of Artist's Point and north of The Cube and Yei Bi Chei Point.
