The valley or cove floor is actually a limestone sink, with these huge boulders lining the tops of the surrounding mountains. You will find rugged sandstone, bejeweled with pure white quartzite pebbles, and a maze of convoluted, fluted corridors, strange, stack-stoned chimney rocks and pillars, unexpected windows and passageways winding in glorious confusion.

I'm trying to work out what the black marks are in the rocks there. I would guess it's from weathering of the rock revealing bits of coal as there are at least two coal mines in the area. I don't think it's charcoal, there hasn't been a bushfire here for sometime. Doesn't look like a camp fire either.

One of Arizona's most spectacular natural wonders are its sandstone formations. Among these are the Antelope Canyon series of slot canyons. Of these, the recently opened Canyon X offers two side by side canyons which are full of fantastic visual treats and which were, at least at my time of visit, still largely undiscovered.
Enjoy!
