ah yiss motherfucking cryptobiotic soil! I love me some cryptobiotic soil. It's cool stuff, and it looks really neat close-up. For anyone ever visiting national parks in southern Utah, please stay on the paths. It takes decades for cryptobiotic soil to build up, but it only takes a second for a footstep to destroy it.
What!? That's neat as hell. Also stay on the paths poeple, that's how you and the environment stay safe.
