This footage is from Southern Utah near Mexican Hat and is hard to explain. It’s named Raplee Ridge or Raplee Anticline. The mighty San Juan River runs through it but tectonic plates pushing upwards produced some elaborate patterns.
Watch in HiDef at Full Screen. Music is Johny by Sofi Tucker.

Pretty. Looks like it is part of Valley of the gods.

Beautiful! The formation right at the beginning, in the middle, looks like an owl, the two big eyes and a red beak in between.
