"Hiking with the Hoo Doos" : Photos taken by quapick

Hiking with the Hoo Doos

This was taken this summer in Banff, Alberta, Canada, in the Canadian Rockies. The strange rock formations in the background are formed because there used to be a river flowing through that eroded away the softer rock, but left pillars of harder rock standing. They are called "Hoo-Doos". Banff is an incredible place to visit. I highly recommend it!
