Wind and water continued to assault these fins until they eventually wore through and pieces began to fall away, creating the amazing arches you see today. Eventually, the domes began to collapse leaving a maze of vertical free-standing rock walls known as fins. Water seeped through cracks in the weathered rock and ice formed, further expanding the crevices and weakening the rock. What happened after the movement of salt molded the landscape? Erosion went to work on the surface rock layers and ground water began to dissolve the underlying salt deposits. The weight of the rock layer caused the salt bed below to become fluid, allowing it to thrust up and create domes and ridges. Over time this debris compressed into rock. During the next millions of years, the area was filled with debris deposited from winds, floods, streams and oceans that came and went. When the sea evaporated, it left salt deposits some areas collected over a thousand feet of these deposits. This is a challenging hike and should only.
