Description

Another one from Tent Rocks. During my trip, I noticed that these types of striated cliffs were common in the southwest, though the colors varied by region. Here, they were mostly gray-blue, in Canyonlands they tended to be variations of red hues & in Arches brown-orange hues... Please zoom

Beautiful shot. Geology is an amazing study. It is wonderful how things get built up and then eroded back down. I would like to find out how much bigger the Earth is now than say a billion years ago.

jayfar: It's not snow, just the sun, which was setting, lighting up the tops of the hills.
