Interstate 70 goes right through it, and the San Rafael river, which you can see in that image, cuts a beautiful canyon creating a Canyonlands-like landscape.

It feels so good to put geologic understanding of the landscape to work (plus a good familiarity with Google’s satellite coverage). Here’s my answer.
