  • A towering columnar basalt cliff is partially reflected in the waters of Breiðasund in the town of Stykkishólmur, Iceland. Columnar basalt is a volcanic rock formed when basalt lava rapidly cools at or very near the Earth's surface. Basalt, which is naturally grey or black, is rich in iron and can rapidly rust, taking on a reddish-brown appearance.

  • Palouse Falls plunges 180 feet (55 meters) into a giant natural amphitheater surrounded by towering columnar basalt walls near Washtucna, Washington. Palouse Falls was formed at the end of the last ice age when a mammoth ice dam in Montana regularly collapsed, releasing a torrent of water that carved this winding gorge.
