Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado, and its surroundings, as seen by the Operational Land Imager (OLI) on the Landsat 8 satellite on August 15, 2016. Mesa Verde isn't actually a mesa, geologically speaking. It is a cuesta, a flat highland with a gentle slope in one direction. Streams cut into the sandstones and shales of the slope, forming all the canyons and alcoves seen in the park today.
