Highlights
- Monitor and Merriamac Rock Formations - Monitor and Merrimac Butte Formations are 2 thin 200 foot tall vertical Entrada Sandstone walls named after the Monitor and Merrimack steamships known for clashing during the Civil War.
- Gemini Bridges - Twin natural bridges that span a section of the rim above an arm of Bull Canyon. The gap between the bridges in the middle is about 10 feet wide.
- Corona Arch - Corona Arch resembles the famous Rainbow Bridge with smooth lines curving down from a massive stone mountain.
- Dead Horse Point State Park - Millions of years of geologic activity created the spectacular views from Dead Horse Point State Park. Deposition of sediments by ancient oceans, freshwater lakes, streams, and wind-blown sand dunes created the rock layers of canyon country. Igneous activity formed the high mountains that rise like cool blue islands out of the hot, dry desert.
- Gemini Bridges - Gemini Bridges are two bridges, or arches, located next to each other in a canyon
