Description
In Goblin Valley State Park (Utah, USA), there are no set paths. You can just wander among the hoodoos, referred to locally as goblins. Around every turn they look different so you just keep going and going and going…..until you wonder if you’ve gotten yourself lost. I visited here with a group of about eight people and we all wandered where our fancies took us and didn’t see one another until a couple of hours later! The rock formations are composed of sandstone and because of its uneven hardness, some patches resisted erosion better than others over the centuries. The softer material was removed by wind and water leaving the goblins behinds. Further erosion by water and wind shaped and smoothed the goblins. While Native Americans clearly knew this area, it wasn’t until the late 1920s that Americans discovered it. One of those men, Arthur Chaffin, returned in 1949 to explore and photograph the area, which he called Mushroom Valley. after which is was acquired by the state of Utah and in 1964 designated as a state park.
