They are something else. Some of them when you get under them and look up you're not quite sure how they're still standing. Hadn't really thought about them looking manmade but I can definitely see that, there was one rock formation that didn't make it into this post that the stones seriously looked like they'd been laid rather than occurring naturally.

I imagine that erosion plays a big role in how they were sculpted but I don't know the geological history of this area. Great stuff though
Oh yeah, erosion, particularly by water is that main thing that sculpted the gorge. There's lots of signage explaining how it happens but I don't recall it well enough to be willing to spout off about it. It's interesting, I've been to Arches National Park in Utah as well and the arches there remind me of the ones in the gorge quite a bit although it's desert without all the trees or water. Thanks!
