Fig. 1From the rim over the Pease River breaks, Copper Breaks
Landform
A smaller red Permian cut west of Palo Duro — copper-stained breaks, juniper on the rims, and a prairie sky that still sits on the High Plains.
Field note
The walls are brick and rust, not a Grand Canyon scale. Quanah is the nearest town. Spring wildflowers and a clear winter sky are the honest hours. This plate is Copper Breaks State Park, not Cedar Breaks in Utah, not the Lighthouse at Palo Duro, and not Caprock one canyon east.
