It seems that way when you visit the incomparable Bentonite Hills in Southern Utah. Bentonite is a type of clay created by volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. I’m sure the clay beds have changed in appearance over the years through erosion but these layers give you some insight into how they may have originally looked and formed.

It is a natural clay or ash that is produced from volcanoes. People have used it as a health aid for detoxification. When ingested, it helps to draw out the toxins that are present in your body. It aslo has many other benefits but definitely not FDA approved.
HOWEVER, I didn’t make a trip to a remote area of Utah for health benefits. From ground level you see layers of different colors present but it’s from above where you are amazed and flabbergasted. This is the reason why I bought a drone. The lines of color are formed when different minerals of different colors seep through the clay.

On some of these images, you’ll see me and my shadow. I look rather insignificant in this landscape.
