COUNTRY:
Kiva

DESIGN:
When I have hiked in the  deepest parts of the Grand Canyon like around Phantom, there are curious cliffs of a black and pink ( !! ) rock which have the look of being stirred up.  They are now called Vishnu Schist but used to be called Zoroaster Plutonic Complex !@#$#!  The rocks are something like 2 billion years old.  I regret misspelling the word Vishnu on the address.

Here is a picture looking across the Colorado from Phantom:
