*** About Phoenix's Mesas: The mesas in the background of this photograph are typical of the geological formations found throughout Arizona, particularly near Phoenix. These flat-topped hills are formed from layers of hard rock that resist erosion, standing tall above the softer rock that has been worn away over millions of years. Such formations are not only significant in the study of geology but also hold cultural importance for many Native American tribes in the region, who consider them sacred lands.
