The Nautilus (Upper End)
Utah
The Nautilus is a sandstone formation created by water erosion as it floods and cuts through the desert sandstone. Here, we see where, during flood, the rushing water enters the narrow slot and swirls against the sides like water in a toilet bow. As the water cuts down it erodes farther and farther under the right side of the channel and undercuts the upper layer of the small slot. The water action has left a thin, overhanging curved piece of sandstone suspended over the stream bed. Apparently, in years past, the overhang was much more prominent but a portion of it has since fallen into the channel.
