Description
The Granite Dells are a geological feature characterized by exposed granite rock formations that have been sculpted by wind and water over millions of years into unusual shapes and patterns. The term “dells” refers to the valleys or low areas between the granite formations. Nestled among these natural wonders lies Watson Lake, a reservoir formed in 1915 when early settlers dammed Granite Creek. This juxtaposition of geological history and human intervention creates a serene oasis, inviting visitors to ponder the passage of time and marvel at the forces of nature. Watson Lake and the Granite Dells are in Prescott, Arizona, USA.
