A slickrock canyon, Red Mountains, Utah, USA
Utah

The Red Mountains of southwestern Utah are a small range, a sandstone massif, stretching less than 10 miles north to south.  At the southern end, erosion and lava and successively carved and then filled the beautiful Snow Canyon.  To the east are the tall Pine Valley mountains and to the west, the lower Beaver Dam Mountains above Gunlock Reservoir and the Santa Clara river.

The sandstone here was originally deposited as a vast sea of dunes over 200 million years ago during the Jurassic age.  Hiking along the slickrock surface you can see the many layers of sand from the ancient dunes and observe the ancient wind changes in the changes of layer orientation.
