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.

Cliffs and Sky Post Storm. The only way to capture this sky at this focal length was to cut the base of the cliffs. It's hotels and housing,not that attractive at ant rate.
I was already standing in the ocean but manages to salvage the camera when the next wave crashed.
125 foot high Devil's Slide is an unusual cliff rock formation on the side of Cinnabar Mountain, north of Yellowstone National Park. This distinctive formation was created from alternate beds of limestone, sandstone, and quartzites that have been tilted to lie nearly vertical and have eroded at different rates.
