Horseshoe bend.

A 270 degree turn carved over a 1000 feet deep into the stone.  The wild Colorado had amazing power.   Just below the dam it is swift but calm and clear and well behaved.  Must have been a lot different to have done all this work!

Hanging garden.

One of those curious seeps that makes its way out between
the sandstone and the next layer.  It supports an unexpected garden in the desert.
Pretty cool what water does without man’s interference.
