[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3114439, member: 5412"] While there, I commented on a phrase I'd heard somewhere that we live on a great big rock. It's true. We just don't have them like that around here. I've always been interested in geology etc, and that area doesn't disappoint. My buddy that we traveled with from Aztec NM has a major in Petroleum engineering and a minor in geology, so we got a pretty good schooling on the trip. It was amazing to find out how all those rock formations were developed. Over the Centuries the area was covered in ocean water leaving salt deposits that later eroded and collapsed leaving it as we see it.
