The state's most unusual canyon. The odd caps at the tops of the columns are called hoodoos. The caps are hard material that remained in place while softer material below them eroded away in some of the walls. Beyond the canyon the canyon walls are rolling Methow Valley hills.
Deer abound there as well as in the canyon which seems to be a migratory route.
Come visit the land of the hoodoos. Few people have. The hoodoos, as the natural rock of fantastic shapes are called, are to be seen in a little canyon situated a few miles off the oiled road that runs between Bear Creek golf course and Pearrygin Lake on the east side of the Methow River. It s called Pipestone Canyon. Nobody knows for sure.
