Red Rocks


Sedona is a hip, New Age town between Coconino and Yavapai Counties in northern Arizona. Some who practice alternative medicine feel that the earth in this area has a number of healing "energy fields" or vortices (Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock, Airport Mesa, and Boynton Canyon, for example). Whatever the case, the red sandstone formations are beautiful! The pinks and reds were caused by iron from volcanic areas moving into areas of mudstone and sandstone and oxidizing as waters from the oceans moved in and receded millions of years ago.
