Yup, I kid you not. While still at White Oak Creek, we made a quick day trip into Georgia to the Providence Canyon State Outdoor Recreation Area. It’s this weird place in Western Georgia that was created by erosion due to poor farming techniques in the 19th century. On a pretty Sunday afternoon, we took a nice walk to the bottom and wandered about a bit admiring this strange place. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves, but if you’re ever in the neighborhood, it’s certainly worth a stop.
To our Montana/Utah kin: OK, so it’s not Yellowstone or the Wasatch, but when you come from a state whose maximum elevation is the lowest max elevation in the US (345′), then you take what you can get.

A state park created in the 19th century by poor farming techniques…how bizarre is that.
