Description |
This odd creation of nature is found in Zion Canyon National Park located in southern Utah and represents layer after layer of sand which became sandstone in some forgotten age. This unique formation is creamy white in color. Zion Canyon is full of interesting geological oddities. Gift of David H. Mann from The Utah Farmer collection. |
