Scarred Earth

Factory Butte in Utah is an alien formation in the middle of the remote desert that looks like another planet. The eerie and desolate landscape creates an otherworldly vibe, and it isn't hard to imagine you landed there on a spaceship. The ground leading to the peak looks like roots or branches have sprouted beneath the soil, giving the barren desert an alien appearance.You can wander across the badlands and explore the strange terrain, or climb the 6,302-foot summit to look out over the vast, empty grounds below. During different times of the day, the colors change across the range, going from reds and orange to deep purples and blues as the sun goes down. You might be the only person visiting the remote region, which gives it an even more desolate feeling, like what you would expect to find on the actual moon.
