A lot better light this late afternoon on the Coyote Teepees. Top photo is zoomed. Bottom photo you can see North AND South Coyote Teepees (buttes).

The geological landscape of Coyote Buttes is the product of a fascinating interplay of geological processes over an immensely long period. The unique patterns, colors, and formations in the sandstone are the result of sediment deposition, lithification, erosion, differential erosion, geological uplift, and mineral content. This combination of factors has created one of the most visually stunning and geologically significant landscapes.
