Thought this was a very intriguing name in addition the spectacular view. Situated near Mexican Hat, Utah, deep in the uranium country of Monument Valley, and part of Goosenecks State Park, the canyon formation is over a thousand feet deep and was hewed by the erosive effects of the San Juan River. For an even more stunning view, go to Wikipedia and click on Goosenecks State Park as seen from space.
