Brittle Fatigue


"Beachmark" patterns in the rock, indicative of fatigue failure in a brittle material - in this case, too many freeze-thaw cycles in the rock. (View at largest size to see the patterns more clearly.)
I don't recall ever seeing as many rock formations showing beachmark patterns as in Horseshoe Canyon...they were everywhere.
