Nice timelapse at the beginning. Looks like a dramatic and exciting place to hike. Very cool rock formations!

This place is definitely a great place to explore. The way that the rocks have eroded over the years is quite dramatic. I'd highly recommend spending some time in the area. There are a lot of other great places to explore in the monument too. Thanks for watching! ~ Mike
