Summary

Description

(1 in a multiple picture album) I had to chuckle as Highway 9 in the higher elevation of Zion neared Checkerboard Mesa. There was a sign which said, "Curve Ahead". No kidding! There was a huge formation in my windshield and I would have likely turned to miss it without the warning.

Checkerboard Mesa is a very interesting piece of rock. The horizontal lines are carved by sand-carrying wind. The vertical lines are cracks in the surface of the monolith.
