Colorado is not one of the first places I think of for volcanic activity, but Needle Rock is indeed a plug of magma near the Elk Mountains. Erosion has exposed the core prominently near Montrose.
My previous upload from the Quiraing (see first comment box) asks the question 'Why did I drag myself up here?' - this image was taken less than an hour later after a drizzly lunch on the Table, and probably answers this question! My husband and dog provide useful scale next to the Needle. The Prison is visible far below on the left.
The needle hangs along the thin line of the tread passed through.... so is our life and hope...!
