Most of the park is located in Arizona, the northernmost point belongs to the state of Utah.
Millions of years ago there were many more rocks in this area, consisting of various types of rocks. The softer layers have been worn away by erosion, causing the so-called mesas to form.

I like to take pictures of nature and landscapes. Travelling is my passion. I also like to occasionally apply in photoshop effects, or create new designs, thus creating digital art. Also art and culture in other countries have my interest. I created many albums in my shop: panoramas, landscapes, animals, people, flowers, various countries, buddhas and more. Besides photography I am involved in sculpting and painting. My other work can be seen on https://www.rietjebulthuis.nl
