Amazing photos. Captures so many things - a long road, blue sky, arid land, a mountain and fencing.

The towering rock formation stands out beautifully against the expansive sky, with the layered clouds adding depth and drama. The winding road leads the viewer's eye through the composition, while the warm tones of the desert foreground create a striking contrast with the cool blues above. 🙏👍

Looks to me like it would be the remains of a volcano's caldera, with the basaltic walls having eroded away, leaving the harder granite remnants of the slowly solidified former magma chambers. We have them along the east coast, Mount Warning, where you first see the Sun rise on new year one of them.

Agathla Peak. One of the sky pillars. Pops up in many landscape shots from Monument Valley vicinity. Nice capture.

Actually, a volcanic cone

Looks kind of like a great big tree stump.

Even cooler is its story. It is a volcanic neck. The remnant pipe that fed an ancient, long eroded cinder cone.

I believe Agathla Peak is the conduit of an extinct volcano.
