Beyond Orange

I was wandering in search of spring wildflowers when I discovered these remarkable high desert rock formations, beyond the orange. This place is certainly Geologic food for thought, and could be a lot of fun to visit!

Quite a beautiful and interesting view! Those are some pretty flowers and those mounds are neat looking too. They look like they have holes in them like the previous weird rocks you posted I wonder if there's a connection there? Neat shot! Has a lot of personality to it. :)

The connection is these are in the same area, so lots of unusual going on here, pretty neat!

That orange of the flowers is spectacular. It's so vibrant. Really cool. These structures must be the ant hills that you mentioned a few photographs back. It's like an ant metropolis. Or maybe they are termites?

The flowers were backlit and vibrant like you say. large red fire ants can make some big mounds but nothing like this. The termites here don't mound are subterranean and live almost everywhere there is soil in the desert. This is the spot I mentioned and erosion is the cause.
