Location: UT : Marjum Canyon By: Greg G When: Mar 25, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: The rock here is Cambrian in age, and is mostly Dolostone. The arid desert climate of the west desert is the reason why this sedimentary stone weathers differently from other areas with similar stone. Keep your eyes peeled for trilobites in the shale/clay layers.
