    Would be nice to hold the rock, yes - but if you can't, this will certainly be a good substitute...

  23. Crack & Alcove

    Crack & Alcove by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) - Anaglyph Test by Jen Piatek

    (3-d glasses helpful) - the erosion here is amazing, and the anaglyph really brings this out.

  24. Joints

    Joints by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    Parallel ractures through the rock unit - the large crack to the left of the snapshot is the same, but enlarged by weathering.

    These features were formed by tectonic forces affecting the area.

  25. Weathering

    Weathering by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    Erosion of the sandstone cliffs by wind and groundwater forms what might be the beginning of alcoves.

  26. Cross Beds

    Cross Beds by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    A sequence of cross beds, which indicate the sediments that formed this sandstone were deposited in sand dunes (the direction of the beds indicates wind direction).

    There are at least three sets of cross beds in this snapshot, which indicate at least three sets of sand dunes that formed on top of each other over geologic time.

  27. Erosion & Deposition

    Erosion & Deposition by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    The faster-moving water on the outside of the bend removes talus from the cliff base, while the slower water on the inner part of the bend leaves the debris and deposits some of its own.

  28. Layered Rocks

    Layered Rocks by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    The sedimentary layers of the Colorado Plateau are exposed by downcutting of the Colorado River.

  29. Deposition

    Deposition by Jen Piatek from the GigaPan Horseshoe Bend (Page, AZ) by Jen Piatek

    Forms by slowing of river flow along the inside of the bend: lower velocity water cannot carry as much sediment.
