Sedimentary Rocks: Sedimentary Formations

The video explores the unique geological formations known as hoodoos in Bryce Canyon National Park. These structures, primarily composed of limestone, were formed from sedimentary rock deposited millions of years ago. Over time, geological processes like erosion by water and ice have shaped these formations into columns, spires, arches, and walls. The hard rock layers on top protect them from rapid erosion, while their vivid colors result from iron oxide staining.
