Description
King of Wings is a spectacular hoodoo that sits in a remote part of the Valley of Dreams, north of Ah-Shi-Sle-Pah Wlderness of San Juan Basin of northwestern New Mexico. Like many other local hoodoos, King of Wings is a large boulder, at least 30 feet long, that is balanced on top of a clay pedestal. What distinguishes it from other hoodoos is that the boulder extends 10 ft beyond the edge of the pedestal creating what looks like a giant wing stretched out into the air. You will not find any signs or trails for King of Wings. Finding it without GPS in the vast expanse of the wilderness is obviously very difficult.
