Image details 3016600 - Monument Valley is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of vast and iconic sandstone buttes, Arizona/Utah border, USA. The floor is largely Cutler Red siltstone or sand deposited by the meandering rivers that carved the valley. The vivid red colors come from iron oxide exposed in the weathered siltstone. The buttes are clearly stratified, with three principal layers. The lowest layer is Organ Rock Shale, the middle is de Chelly Sandstone, and the top layer is Moenkopi Shale capped by Shinarump Siltstone. The valley includes large stone structures including the famed Eye of the Sun.
