Easier hike to a large hole in the rock face. Over time erosion created their tent-like shape and you can see them up close on the Tent Rocks Slot Canyon and Cave Loop Trail. The pretty slot opens out quite suddenly after a quarter of a mile to a still narrow gorge that contains a few tall trees growing in the streambed after which the canyon ascends more steeply through another brief narrow part then climbs even more sharply to the top of the plateau where it splits into several paths that lead to viewpoints looking out over the Tent Rock formations down.

We did not do the cave loop but the canyon hike up and back about 32 miles. Dec 12 2018 The weight compacted the strata into a crumbly matrix rock that resembles a cement mixture. It is malleable easily sculpted by wind and water.
