San Rafael Reef on I-70 in Utah

Interstate 70 cuts through the San Rafael Reef, the name given to the eastern edge of the San Rafael Swell, a geological feature on the Colorado Plateau in central Utah. The San Rafael Swell is composed of steeply tilted layers of sandstone that have been eroded into fins, domes, cliffs and deep canyons, including slot canyons a few feet wide and hundreds of feet deep.
