View from The Alcove
The Alcove of Horseshoe Canyon, Utah, was likely used as shelter.
If true, this astounding view from inside greeted the residents.
(Horseshoe Canyon is a portion of Canyonlands National Park.)

Thank you, Eric. I'm glad you like it. The hike in that canyon was great. But, I did wonder what it would have been like to live in that alcove -- not exactly full of the conveniences we are accustomed to in our "modern" world.
