It is different - odd hoodoos. They are on the backside of the huge White Pocket monolith. In the background is the popular Wave - North Coyote Buttes. There was a gorgeous rainbow back there when we were there but it was too far and too dark for a good picture.

I love hiking when it's cold, and in remote areas. I guess it calls to my desire for solitude. I want to be at White Pocket right now. Alas for a 20-hour drive. :?
