One of The Trango Towers?

No, I'm sorry. This is not one of the Trango Towers. This is one of many unique rock formations found in the desert south of Camp Verde, Arizona. Originally, these rocks were deposited as sediments on the bottom of a shallow lake. The lake was formed when a basalt flow from a nearby volcano halted the flow of the Verde River, creating a natural dam.

Re: Are the orange spots...

Yes, the orange spots on the rock are fossils of many fine foxes. I tried my darndest to find rare "toadstools" growing at the base of the rocks, but apparently
there's not enough water to support such
life.

In the early Spring, a pethora of beautiful
butterflies can be found flying around in
this remarkable area. : ))))))))

And, let's not the forget about the "rabid
foxes" found at THs near Prescott, Arizona
in the past few weeks. Very scary stuff!

Okay, I'll get back to watching "Animal Planet" now - THANKS for dropping by!!! : )
