October 1, 2014: Great Sand Dunes National Park,
CO
View of the dunes as you approach the entrance to Great Sand Dunes National Park.
A photo
essay of nature’s own “Sand Art” from Great Sand Dunes National Park in
Colorado.
In my next post I’ll talk a little
bit about how all this sand got here, how the dunes continually recreate
themselves, and “wave surges” in Medano Creek, a unique feature found only in a
few locations around the world. Pretty
interesting stuff. I’ll also show you
some pictures from our hikes and dune climbing.
In the meantime, enjoy the “Sand Art”.
Water and sand sculpture.
Tiny
feet.
Circles
in the sand. The wind blows the blades
of grass 360 degrees creating complete circles in the sand.
Japanese
geisha fans.
Crescent moon.
Someone’s
little footies.
Lizards
chasing lizards.
Worm-like sand ridges
in the creek bed.
Watermarks in Medano Creek.
Did you
enjoy Nature’s art? Your comments are always welcome. Until next time – be safe.
