		<description>&lt;p&gt;My favorite Hoodoo&lt;/p&gt;

Is located near Ghost Ranch, New Mexico, where Georgia O&#039;Keefe painted. It&#039;s near Echo Amphitheater, an amazing State Park. (I edited the size for you :)) EDIT: location:  36°21&#039;46.61&quot;N, 106°31&#039;41.79&quot;W

Thanks for posting that, SDR. I read the linked article (&lt;a href=&quot;http://repository.azgs.az.gov/sites/default/files/dlio/files/nid1280/cr-11-b_precarious_rocks.pdf&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://repository.azgs.az.gov/sites/default/files/dlio/files/nid1280/cr-11-b_precarious_rocks.pdf&lt;/a&gt;) a while back and it is great research.

I like that the article you linked starts with Balanced Rock in Garden of the Gods, a place I know very well. I remember that rumor back in the 1990&#039;s. But the article does not mention that the bottom is re-enforced with concrete after local college students attempted to push it over a long time before. I&#039;d have to look it up to get the date right.

EDIT:
