These are the "Tent Rock"s. Being among these was like being on the set of Star Wars.
From Wikipedia:
A hoodoo (also tent rock, fairy chimney, earth pyramid) is a tall thin spire of rock that protrudes from the bottom of an arid drainage basin or badland. Hoodoos are composed of soft sedimentary rock and are topped by a piece of harder, less easily-eroded stone that protects the column from the elements.

great pictures! I've seen a lot of hoodoos, but I've never seen the tent rock area that you visited... very, very cool. I hope I can visit that area some day.
