Ah Shi Sle Pah Wilderness, New Mexico, USA

Nature has a knack for balancing the impossible. In New Mexico"s Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wilderness, towering hoodoos perch hefty rock caps on slender stems. Wind, water and ice have spent roughly 75 million years sculpting these remote badlands into an open-air gallery that feels more alien than terrestrial.
