The Wheeler Geologic Area is a highly eroded outcropping of layers of volcanic ash, in the La Garita Mountains of Mineral County, in southern Colorado. The formations are named after Captain George M. Wheeler, who explored and surveyed this area in 1874 for the U.S. Army.

Specatular landscapes and great shots. I saw similar erosion effects in the Alps (France and Austria) In French they call them “Dames coiffées” (Ladies with a hairdress)
