摘要:About fifteen minutes ago I opened my email and there were these wonderful images of Water Holes Canyon that is just south of Page, Arizona, sent to me by Rob Fathauer. Water Holes has dramatic Navajo sandstone narrows similar to those of the more visited, more photographed, and more famous Antelope Canyon. Both lie within the Navajo Nation and are tributaries of Glen Canyon. These sandstone forms are a result of erosion, primarily due to flash floods in which water carrying sand and rocks rushes through the narrow passageways. The chaotic nature of this process leads to complex forms. The section of narrows shown in most of the images below is roughly 20 feet deep and a 2-6 feet wide.
