Brick-red Duchesne Fm. dominates landscape on Day 3.

Detailed Description

The brick-red, flat-lying Duchesne Formation sandstones dominated the landscape for a couple days. Its bluffs are a favorite nesting spot for cliff swallows, of which we saw many, and peregrine falcons, of which we saw two.
