Painted Wall View, Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park, Colorado, USA.

Painted Wall View, Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, near Montrose, Colorado, USA. Pressurized molten rock was forced into 1.7-billion-year-old metamorphic rock, forming pink pegmatite stripes on Colorado's highest cliffs. With two million years to work, the Gunnison River and weathering have sculpted a vertical wilderness of rock, water, and sky. This panorama was stitched from 11 overlapping photos.
