We wish to thank Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia for some of the information on this page. We share information with Wikipedia.

MEXICAN HAT, Utah, is located on Highway 163, 24 miles west of Bluff, in Utah.

The name "Mexican Hat" comes from a curiously sombrero-shaped, 60-foot (18 m) wide by 12-foot (3.7 m) thick, rock outcropping on the northeast edge of town. The "Hat"' has two rock climbing routes ascending it. It has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names.

Mexican Hat is a remnant of a sandstone layer of the Halgaito Formation, a rock unit formed from sediments deposited on a coastal plain next to a shallow seaway during Late Pennsylvanian time.

Subsequent erosion has exposed the ancient sedimentary formations (Halgaito and older Honaker Trail Formations) that form the core of the Raplee Anticline.
