I play around a playa mound

Floating Island, Utah

During an exploration of the "tail" of Floating Island I encountered many of these mounds on the playa. This is perhaps the tallest one I saw. If anyone knows how these mounds were formed, I would appreciate hearing about it.

This picture was made possible in part by the ever-reliable effort of Joe Tripod, who accompanies me on treks for my self-portraits. Mounds do not impress him.

Ah, never mind. They are probably not even red. I guess it is a pretty lame joke after all.

Larry, I'm dense. White shirt? Please translate.

Wow, Dave. I wouldn't stand so close to that fire ant hill while wearing that white shirt.

Death Valley doesn't count---it's not in Utah.

The terrain is very similar to that found in Death Valley. Excellent sp!
