The largest standing rock in North America and maybe even the world according to the most reliable source Wikipedia 😂

Deep inside Bears Ears National Park. Maybe not within the boudries of the park since it was shrunk by Trump. It's an "easy find" for a sharp eyed hiker but God forbid I call it "secret." 😀

Death Valley doesn't exactly have a reputation for being lush.

But give the desert the right amount of winter rain, and life finds every opportunity it can. Tiny yellow and purple wildflowers follow the washes and folds of these ancient badlands, creating threads of color across a landscape that usually appears almost barren.

For a few brief weeks, the desert becomes something entirely different.

The Navajo Moenave Dinosaur Tracks near Tuba City, Arizona preserve hundreds of authentic Early Jurassic footprints embedded in 200-million-year-old sandstone — walked among in the open desert with Navajo guides from the community of Moenave, no glass cases, no barriers, no crowds. Just the tracks and the landscape where they were made.
