Our first stop in Canyonlands at Islands in the Sky was to the upheaval dome. This is a 3 mile wide round crater formed either by a salt dome or by a meteor impact. http://www.nps.gov/cany/planyourvisit/upload/UpheavalDome.pdf

Another view of the potash settlement ponds. This is not necessary scenic and natural, but was interesting. Dust storms are off in the distance with 40 mph winds
