Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Natural-colour image of the Canyon Lands of Utah area, with Rainbow Bridge and Navajo Mountain (lower right).
  • Red, brown, and beige sandstone formations predominate in this scene.
  • In the past, the water level in Lake Powell has been high enough to submerge the canyon, but if any water trickled through the stream-bed below Rainbow Bridge at the time of this image, the stream was too narrow for the satellite sensor to see. Clouds and canyon walls cast dark shadows toward the north-west. The bridge also casts its own slim shadow.
