Criss-crossing joints and crossbeds! A landmark on the east side of the park. Here's how it looked in 2009:

Looks fabulous. I would love to scramble up it (although the top section looks a mite trickier!)

Die Schachbrettwand – natürlich ein Muss, wenn man hier durchbrettert. Und die örtlichen Begebenheiten lassen eigentlich nur einen Blickwinkel zu. Ich habe nämlich genau dasselbe. ;-)

Your 1986 photo of the popular Checkerboard Mesa is fantastic.
In another photo site I have proposed a harebrained theory of the source of the etched rock.
