Elephant's Feet, Tonalea, Arizona

in video •  6 years ago 

You can find this Located along Highway 160 after the 345 mile marker, 20 miles east of Tuba City, Arizona. The Elephant's Feet are pair a giant mountain sandstone pillars that stand out along the side of the road. These feet step out of the lands of the Navajo Nation. They have a proud history, probably you heard of them for Navajo code talkers during WW2.

Experts clam during the Jurassic period sometime between 180 and 140 million years ago was formed. The dark reddish color of the Sandstone comes mainly from the mineral hematite that's an iron oxide, and a principal ore of iron.

This type of Sandstone is found in Wyoming, Colorado, northwest New Mexico, northeast Arizona and southeast Utah.

In the background you are hearing traditional Navajo music. They place a great deal of importance on the value of voice in the music.
