Great snap, and we rarely come to see red rocks.

liked the sedona pic..does this rock have a specific name to it?

Sujata said...

Jeevan: I agree it is quite unique. The red color comes from Iron oxide from a post-glacial age ocean that filled all of the Verde Valley!

Sujata said...

Rush: I am not sure. This particular picture was taken a bit away from the city. And the rocks with names just like the Vortex were the ones with easy access!

This is so similar to the arches National park that I had been to in Utah. There there are a number of them lined up!

Guess the mid-west has a lot of topography in common which also includes the Grand Canyon.
