valley, interesting place, stone/rock feature
A scenic sandstone valley with similar rock formations to Monument Valley, albeit on a smaller scale, with tall, red, isolated mesas, buttes, and cliffs standing above the level valley floor, remnants of an ancient landscape. It may be toured via the 17-mile (27 km) gravel road (FR 242) and various off-road dirt trails. The valley is not a park, but public land managed by the Bureau of Land Management. There are no services in the valley, except for a bed-and-breakfast located near the western end of FR 242. -Adapted from Wikipedia.
