Twin Tanks context
To accompany my Twin Tanks photo posted on May 5, this frame from the drone flight video out to the ridge shows part of the extent of this elegant cliff with its vermilion-orange and white.sandstone. As you can see, the clouds were dramatic as I filmed the scene in the last minutes of direct light. The outcrop is about 0.6 miles in length, comparable to White Pocket.
Twin Tanks is one of many sites on the Paria Plateau that continue the theme of exotic sandstone formations that make Coyote Buttes and White Pocket famous. This one, 8 miles southeast of White Pocket, is virtually unknown to the many tourists to the famous sites. I could not find any other photos of it except for one in Kelsey's book.
