Hexagon!

A beautiful hexagon is formed in the cross bedding on the side of one of the mounds.

 

The White Pocket Wilderness on the Paria Plateau is located within the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument. The layers of White and Red Navajo sandstone appear to have solidfied while being contorted in various strange and interesting patterns.

 

The area is not a permitted area, but it is a long drive along some roads which in wet conditions are pretty slick and in dry conditions, very sandy... We didn't see a soul for the entire afternoon that we were in the area.
