About this postcard

Three tall red sandstone spires, the Three Graces, rise from sandy ground in the interior of Garden of the Gods, with lower rock walls and juniper bushes around them and a blue sky with scattered clouds above. The caption calls the group one of the park's many "odd Red Sandstone Rock formations." Garden of the Gods, near Colorado Springs, was already a well-known scenic stop by the early 20th century, its named fins and spires formed from ancient sand dunes and visited by tourists heading to Pikes Peak.
