WIDOWED CANYONS:

Single buttes are like widowed mountains
pairs of buttes near one another are like widowed canyons

Hahaha
So seen singly, they are widowed mountains
And when found doubly, they are widowed canyons
If you see three, run, because they gain speed in groups of more than two, and you might find yourself overrun with buttes—a problem I am all too familiar with. Just stay calm. Address them one at a time. You may find them arguing amongst each other over you. This is your chance. Make a run for the hills, which are less-desolate buttes—ones with life yet left in them. That is where you belong—among the quick and witted.

"MONUMENT VALLEY," TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA ON SAT., MARCH 11TH, 2023:
Monument Valley (Navajo: Tsé Biiʼ Ndzisgaii, pronounced [tsʰépìːʔ ǹtsɪ̀skɑ̀ìː], meaning valley of the rocks) is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of sandstone buttes, the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor.[1] It is located on the Utah-Arizona state line, near the Four Corners area. The valley is a sacred area that lies within the territory of the Navajo Nation Reservation, the Native American people of the area.[2]
Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Director John Ford used the location for a number of his Westerns; critic Keith Phipps wrote that "its five square miles [13 square kilometers] have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West."[3]
