The Saltburn Cliff Railway opened in 1883, it connects the pier with the town. It's two carriages operate by pumping water up to the top carriage, when it is heavy enough it travels down the 120 foot drop to the bottom station, pulling the lighter carriage from the bottom up. When it reaches the bottom the whole process is repeated.
The rock formations are amazing..they look like they've been stirred with a spoon!...but this cliff has the best feature...a profile of a maiden looking out to sea.
As Cosper Wosper so cleverly suggested..it's a Rock Face...ha ha!

Located on the Colorado Plateau in northern Arizona, Vermilion Cliffs National Monument includes the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness. The Monument borders Kaibab National Forest to the west and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area to the east.
This remote and unspoiled, 280,000-acre Monument is a geologic treasure, containing a variety of diverse landscapes from the Paria Plateau, Vermilion Cliffs, Coyote Buttes, and Paria Canyon. Elevations range from 3,100 to 7,100 feet.
Visitors will enjoy scenic views of towering cliffs and deep canyons. Paria Canyon offers an outstanding three to five day wilderness backpacking experience. The colorful swirls of cross-bedded sandstone in Coyote Buttes are an international hiking destination. There are also opportunities to view wildlife, including California condors. There are two developed campgrounds just outside the Monument: Stateline and White House. Dispersed camping is allowed outside the wilderness area in previously disturbed areas.
A permit is required for hiking in Coyote Buttes North (the Wave), Coyote Buttes South, and for overnight trips within Paria Canyon.

I shot the local softball league finals the other night. We should have a few in Sunday's paper.
Cliff's Meat Market's Lucy Stephenson (cq) swings for the fence early in the rirst game of the hard-fought double-header softball finals against Chapel Hill Air at Carrboro's Hank Anderson Park on Tuesday evening. Cliff's Meat Market went on to win both games, taking the championship in Carrboro Parks and Recreation's Spring Adult Co-Rec Softball league.

I had planned to sleep in and then ride my bicycle around taking photos. Instead, I rode to Rosalie's house for a full day of yard work. On the way home I went exploring and was rewarded with this beach, which I consider payment in full for my lost weekend.
