cedarbreaksnps , you are tall and gorge-ous!
Standing an impressive 10,000 feet in elevation on top of the Colorado Plateau, this park offers breathtaking views of the geologic amphitheater below.
Although it doesn’t share the official title, Cedar Breaks is a form of “badlands.” This term is often used to refer to a dry area without vegetation that has dramatic and sometimes confusing geologic formations that, although it has great aesthetic value, is of little practical worth.
It’s not like we mind; we love an uninterrupted view of Utah’s geologic history!
