Devil’s Elbow (Cotovelo do diabo) e área de piquenique El Capitan
Situado sob a gloriosa montanha El Capitan ao longo do rio Merced, Devil’s Elbow é um dos lugares mais escondidos em Yosemite para fazer um piquenique, nadar ou simplesmente se comunicar com a natureza.
Quando outras áreas mais populares, mas menos interessantes ao longo da Merced, estão repletas de crianças gritando, motos, carros e multidões opressivas, Devil’s Elbow raramente terá mais que um punhado de visitantes.
Pelo fato de Devil's Elbow estar na saÃda do Vale de Yosemite, a maioria dos visitantes está a caminho de casa quando passam por este local tranquilo.
O cotovelo do diabo é difÃcil de encontrar. Há muito poucos estacionamentos na área e pouca sinalização, então você só precisa seguir seu mapa até encontrar a caracterÃstica curva acentuada do rio.
Estacione o seu carro e arraste as pedras até a praia arenosa. Devil’s Elbow é menos adequado na Primavera, quando o rio Merced está muito alto e rápido para descansar na praia ou nadar confortavelmente. Experimente no final do verão e no outono para desfrutar da sua maior magia.

After hiking Calf Creek Falls and having a late lunch, Jason and I took a drive down Hole-in-the-Rock Road to Devil's Garden (not to be mistaken for the Devil's Garden in Arches NP). We had the place to ourselves and had a fun time walking around the bizarre red rock formation.
A night shot of Devil's Castle in in Alta Ski Resort in Utah. As I was shooting some of these a group of hikers passed by with their flashlights, heading back to their campground. I only had one RAW photo to work with, which is why the photo is a bit too dark. However, I enjoy the effect of the flashlights.
The Devils Hall Trail ends, reasonably enough, at Devils Hall, a narrow slot canyon of sorts carved through the limestone. The hall is about 300 feet long, running between cliffs that rise a hundred feet on both sides.
This almost had the look of a roadcut, but it obviously is natural. It's hard for me to work out how this happened, though. It's not like an actual canyon, as the level of the trail is the same on either side. It's more like somebody cut through the hill. It may be something like a water gap, in which streems cut through either side of the hill until one captured the other. Or there might have been a natural break in the rock, and one side slid away from the other.
Edit: I've since worked this out. Pine Springs Canyon marks the location of a minor fault formed during regional deformation probably related to the Laramide Orogeny that formed the Colorado Plateau and the Rocky Mountains. The canyon and its fault does a little jog here, running to the left of the rock wall you see. The hall began as a fracture in the rock during this faulting which has since weathered.
Devil's Dyke is the remains of a prehistoric defensive ditch which lies at the east side of the village of Wheathampstead, Hertfordshire, England. ... It is generally agreed to have been part of the defences of an Iron Age settlement belonging to the Catuvellauni tribe of Ancient Britain. It has possible associations with Julius Caesar's second invasion of Britain (54 BC)
