Sandstone Lines
I captured this image in 2012 during my first visit into the Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness Area. The trailhead begins in southern Utah just under 5,000 feet above sea level, then climbs (and descends) resulting in an overall climb 350 feet over 3 miles, a mere 1/3 mile into the Arizona side of the border. At this point is The Wave, an incredible sandstone formation. The sandstone lines create a mesmerizing spectacle.
