The two rounded rocky mounds before you are named Twin Buttes. Buttes are remnants of rock layers in the Earth’s crust that resists weathering. The steep sides of a butte are formed by erosion of the surrounding rock by wind and water. These buttes are unusual because they appear to mirror images of one another.
