We went off-road in trucks through sand dunes to get to the White Pocket, only to have it rain our first half-hour. Eventually the tents were set up, we moved in, and then we headed off to the nearby rocks. Not all the geology is known, but the white "brain rock" over striped pink layers makes for amazing formations.
