The run to Moab from the Grand Canyon had a less traveled short cut that I took called the Valley of the Monuments. For two hours it's one desert spire after another, separated by vast stretches of red clay sand and rock. Minus the occasional desert shrub, it looks like a calm quiet Martian afternoon.
Some of these formations have names, this one is called 'Mexican Hat' which is gringo-speak for sombrero.
Its a massive boulder sitting balanced on an eroded spire ... At some point the hat will tip, and I'm sadly sure that nobody will be here to see it...
