Sacred Sombrero Rock. The Trail of the Red Rock Country.

The Mexican Hat Rock is one of the most fascinating and stunning rock formations that can be seen in the land of Red Rocks and the Valley of the Gods in Utah. We will take this trail today to a mystical place - the balancing Sombrero Rock. These rocks are about 250 million years old. It is unknown who and when placed the flat stone on top of the rock. This is the work of the ancients, masters of the art of Stone. The height of this rock is about 18 meters. To do such a job, you have to be a true giant. The stone is made of red slate and is very energetically charged. Many millions of years ago, this was the seashore. All the land here is covered with coral sand. And in these places, dinosaur bones are often found. Here, you can also find many arrowheads. They say that this is the place for charging sacred turquoise stones. It is used by Indians for amulets and jewelry. A person climbs this rock to perform a ritual, sits under a stone sombrero, with his back to the stone and calls upon the ancient god.
