Southern Utah

 Yesterday, we were in Southern Utah, marveling at the land forms sculpted by eons of tectonic movement and erosion.

We had a restful lunch in the deep shade of a mesa.  The coarse sandstone had taken a toll on our boots and backpacks.

If you look closely, you can see the fossilized tracks of an enormous dinosaur, thought to be from the extinct Three-toed Buffoonasaurus.

This towering mesa has been a sacred site for Native Americans over the millennia.  In the 70's, a Chevrolet was placed on top for an advertisement.  The outrage continues to this day.
