Cedar Breaks, Utah, USA

A west-facing scarp on the crest above Cedar City, Utah. It's eroded into the same orange-and-white weathering Wasatch Formation as is Bryce Canyon, so the resemblance is not accidental! Traditionally, a "break" or "breaks" was a steep scarp or ridge--that is, a "break" in the land surface. The usage is now pretty much archaic except for place names. The "cedar" is in fact juniper, a traditional name in the US west.
