Our fascination with architecture runs deep. We pay attention to the structures around us because of the way it shapes our experiences and tells stories about the culture. To really understand our environment, we can explore cities by strolling down the main streets and learning about history by admiring famous landmarks. For some of us, however, the view from the bottom and from a safe distance is simply not enough.

Misty hills. Lonely forest roads. Plenty of vines, moss, and unkempt trees. And the cherry on top—a gorgeous abandoned building that radiates eeriness and grandeur in equal measure. That’s our dream home right there. Especially if the place looks haunted.

I have been determined to find this crazy rock formation nicknamed the King-Of-Wings for several years. I've seen a few photos of it and wanted desperately to find it. It is the most obscure thing I have ever found. This hoodoo seems to somehow defy the laws of physics and gravity. (no, this is not photoshopped) Who knows how much longer this thing will keep standing. I really wanted to document it before it collapses. A lot of research went into this. It's not in Bisti Badlands as I had previously thought. It's about 10 miles south of that in another badlands called Ah Shi Sle Pah (yes, really) The badlands around Bisti stretch out for about 20 miles. Trying to find one particular rock formation amidst that 20 miles is like quite literally finding a needle in a haystack. It was about a four mile hike from the nearest road. (when I say road, I mean a few tire tracks thru the desert) The road abruptly ended at a cliff going down to a great big wash. From there it was on foot for about four miles putting 100% faith in my GPS, climbing through washes and under fences. It's difficult blindly following a little dot on a GPS screen, especially when the GPS keeps telling you to go left, when your instincts are telling you to go right. I could see a bunch of badlands off to the right, but the direction I was heading was nothing but dead grass and sagebrush. Eventually the GPS won, as I came over a hill and, lo and behold, there was a few miles of badlands ahead. As soon as I saw those badlands, I was elated. I knew the GPS must be right. This formation was in there. I knew it. Scaling down a cliff into the badlands was a challenge. So… I found it! This is one of the scariest hikes I have ever done. Not that it was dangerous or challenging. Just scary putting 100% faith in a dot on a GPS screen. Scary knowing that if the battery on the GPS dies, I have almost no chance of ever finding my way back to my truck which was parked in the middle of the desert about 15 miles from the nearest paved road. Scary that if I did have a problem, I had absolutely no cell phone signal. Even scarier that by the time I found this thing, it was only an hour before sunset, and I had hiked over two hours to find it. I REALLY didn't want to try to find my truck in the dark. There is no moon right now, so it would be REALLY dark! I shot this quickly and started heading back immediately. Luckily I was able to find a much more direct route back, and did manage to find my truck shortly after sunset.
