I was in a narrow side canyon over at Little Creek. I noticed that there was a lot of this beautiful sandstone. Sandstone is, by nature, layered, but often the layers are similarly colored. In this case, the thin layers alternated between reddish-brown and white. The alternating layers were interesting enough, but in some cases they were also swirled into circular patterns. The rock in the picture was so beautiful that I wanted to take it home. Unfortunately it weighed two or three hundred pounds. So I left it.
