Seeing things
25 rock formations that resemble something else
Roam around America's parks, especially in the West, and you'll see rock formatons that look like sculptures of various things. No, I'm not talking about ships or structures - towers, teepees, cathedrals, castles, and the like - that's a little too easy. I'm referring to more complex forms, like animals, people, and common objects.
Here are 25 photos showcasing some of the more interesting rock formations I've encountered over the years. Go outside ... and bring your imagination!
