This giant natural limestone gutter is obviously only suitable for the devil. Moreover, by its correctness of form, the Descent of the Devil hints that it certainly could not have done without evil spirits.
Let's take a closer look at it …
The descent consists of two parallel weather-resistant plates, about 12 meters high and about 6 meters apart. The attraction itself is about 60 meters long. Shale limestone is located between the more rigid slabs. It is much softer and more pliable, so over time it is easily blown out by winds and washed out by precipitation. Scientists estimate that the Devil's Descent came to the surface relatively recently, although it was formed another 75 million years. Naturally, we compared just with the above period.
Here's another version: about 170-180 million years ago, there was a shallow sea. This sea extended east to the Colorado River and south to northern Arizona. Over several million years, the sediments washed out the softer limestone, forming a giant hill.
