The Red Cathedral stands above a canyon of tan mounds. Various trails branching out from closer to the Cathedral allow you to access the mounds.
The tall, flat face of Manly Beacon, with a portion of the Red Cathedral visible behind it on the left. The trail may be seen cutting across the lower portion with a few hikers along the middle of frame. Photo was taken from a slight spur leading onto a large bald area, some of which may be seen on the right of frame.
Two large rocky hillsides with layers of diagonal light and dark brown banding may be seen with a ridgeline in the distance on the other side of Death Valley.
Rolling hills of light and dark brown patterned rock may be seen with a sloped ridgeline on the right of frame. A separate ridgeline on the far end of Death Valley may be sen in the distance.
