Mount

A folded syncline of Miocene mudstone and ash in the Calico Mountains, eight miles north of Barstow. The Barstow Formation was laid down between thirteen and nineteen million years ago, the floor of an ancient Mojave wetland, and later tectonics tipped the whole stack on edge. Iron, manganese, and gypsum salts paint the slopes in rust, green, pink, and bone. The Rainbow Loop is a four-mile dirt road through the syncline. The Bureau of Land Management designated the area a National Natural Landmark in 1972 for the fossil beds, where camels, horses, and Miocene rhinoceros come out of the rock.
