Someone once told me that if you want to see the real power of water, go to a desert. I was very confused the first time I heard that because it’s the desert, there is no water. Then I saw a slot canyon for the first time. Well, let's just say it left an impression on me. The patterns, texture, and the colors were all unbelievable as if a carved out my master craftsman. So every time we go out into the desert, we look for slot canyons. We have found some amazing ones in California, but the absolute best slot canyons occur in the American southwest, especially at the confluence of Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. That area is home to some of the most beautiful slot canyons.
Now compared to some vast slot canyons, the pastel canyon of Valley of Fire state park is tiny. It's only a few meters long. But want it lacks in size, it makes up for in color and texture, especially during morning light. I was lucky enough to be at the right place and time on a visit to this beautiful park and what a show it was.
