Dead Horse Point

This picture of Dead Horse Point was taken in Dead Horse Point State Park off Route 313 approximately 32 miles from Moab, Utah.  Dead Horse Point State Park towers some 2,000 feet above the Colorado River providing a panoramic view of the Canyonlands' sculptured pinnacles and buttes.  One legend has it that this point was used as a corral of wild mustangs roaming the mesa.  The cowboys then chose the horses they wanted and left the others.  Does this place remind one of any other place that has been seen on any of the other blogs?  I might add that this area was used as the final scene of the movie Thelma and Louise!
