Sunrise #2, 23 February 2017, Valley of the Gods, Bears Ears National Monument, Utah, USA

One of the signature landscapes in the new Bears Ears National Monument, Valley of the Gods resemble Monument Valley...which is less than 20 miles southwest. It was a cold (32 degrees F) and windy (25 mph+) morning...but the lovely light and desert views made it worth getting out of bed (true confession...this view was less than 300 yards from my campsite!).
