Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and Vermilion Cliffs National Monument converge in this high-desert landscape spanning the border of Utah and Arizona. The terrain is defined by dramatic geological transitions, most notably the towering Cocks Comb and the narrow geological corridor of Wire Pass. This region, documented by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2020, reveals a complex system of drainage and erosion including the deep Buckskin Gulch and Pine Hollow Canyon.
