Palo Duro Canyon State Park, Texas, USA: eroded cliff side - Geologic time periods marked by major changes in the fossil record - rock strata covering the Permian age, Triassic age, Miocene-Pliocene age and at the top the Quaternary age - this cliff includes the Permian-Triassic (P-T) extinction boundary, colloquially known as the Great Dying, that took place about 248 million years ago. The extinction was caused by climate change. The main cause of extinction was the vast amount of carbon dioxide emitted by volcanic eruptions that created the Siberian Traps, which elevated global temperatures and acidified the oceans. Geological time scale, part of the Caprock Escarpment - Texas Panhandle.

$An overcast photo of the Lady of Lourdes Grotto/Shrine just before it was torn down in 2008. The trees to the right of it were chopped down and the stumps removed. The farmers have begun working the field to plant crops. The sky is dark and overcast with incoming rain. \nThe grotto was built on the Lourdes Farm, just south of Lethbridge, on Highway 4, owned by the ‘Brothers of Lourdes”. They were a charitable organization from Holland made up of clergy from the Roman Catholic Church. \nThe Grotto/Shrine seen here was built by them in 1955. Modelled after the Shrine of Lourdes in France, it was built with 2X4 wood pieces firmly nailed together and draped with burlap dipped in a concrete slurry. A statue of the Virgin Mary sat in the opening near the top. The bottom opening contained a small alter and candle racks with kneeler benches outside. The grotto was the location of religious ceremonies and was also open for people to worship and light candles. The fence was put in by new owners. Originally there was a turn off from the highway and an area to park.$

The Bentonite Hills, about 14 km (9 mi) north of Utah Hwy 24 on Hartnet Road, east of Capitol Reef National Park, is an area of badlands composed mainly of the mineral bentonite. This is a type of clay composed primarily of montmorillonite, an aluminum phyllosilicate material. It forms from the weathering of ancient volcanic ash when exposed to seawater. At first it is white or pale blue, but eventually can turn cream colored, then red, yellow, and brown. Virtually all of these colors are visible in stratified layers of the Bentonite hills, as are scattered black lava boulders, evidence of ancient volcanic action.
