  • Gray Rock (left) and South Gateway Rock (right), with the Manitou Springs incline behind and Pikes Peak above, at the Garden of The Gods, an area of geological rock formations protected as a public park, near Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. The formations are the result of vertical tilting due to the uplift forces of the Rocky Mountains and the Pikes Peak massif, of the horizontal layers of sandstones, conglomerates and limestones, resulting after erosion in the formation of fins and pinnacles. Native Americans have visited the area since 1330 BC and camped here since 250 BC, sheltering under the cliffs and producing rock art. The Garden of the Gods was listed as a National Natural Landmark in 1971. Picture by Manuel Cohen
