Kat---I found out recently that "hoodoos" is an actual geologic designation for that kind of an amazing erosion remnant --- a pillar that stands there majestically against the sky and is capped by a solid stone. Everything has been worn away by time and water and wind and other forces to allow the levels of the pillar to show what went down for the last 10,000 years and more. It's like the various telling layers into the depths of the rand Canyon.



Banf is really pretty amazing! We had to hike quite a way back into the mountains in order to see those. I remember being exhausted, but it was great to get there finally and see that.
