Description
Photograph of rock peaks adjacent to a series of cliffs, Red Rock Canyon, [s.d.]. In the extreme foreground to the left and right, sloping ridges lined with small rocks can be seen. Between the two ridges, two large rock formations in the shape of stalagmites can be seen. Behind these formations, a series of layered, smooth cliff walls can be seen extending from the left to the far right. At the top of the cliff wall at center, a large cluster of rock formation in the shape of stalagmites can be seen. In the extreme background, the top of the mountain ridge can be seen descending to the far right.
