Unusual and delicate weathering landform
by Andreas Kellerer-Pirklbauer
Delicate Arch is a fragile-looking landform in the semi-arid part of Utah, USA. The process of skin weathering, desquamation or exfoliation is leading to the slow disintegration of this unusual landform. One day, this sculpture made by nature will be history.
