The Tepees
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
The Tepees is an area of the Petrified Forest National Park dominated by cone-shaped rock formations. The formations contain layered blues, purples and grays in addition to the colors found in other portions of the park. The Tepees are in the southern section of the park between Newspaper Rock and Blue Mesa.

SPECTACULAR!!!
Wow! The tepees and the cloud formation above, the intense blue sky, it looks surreal. Almost like another planet in a science fiction movie!

Love the colored layers. The Salt Creek area in Canyonlands has the same colored layers. Perhaps they were formed at the same time.
