Hoodoos Form Quickly

Hoodoos: Unusual Erosional Features That Form Quickly

Hoodoos are tall erosional columns formed as a result of erosion and give strong evidence of the Genesis Flood. Millions of years are not needed to describe the formation of these unique features as the evolutionists propose and a few thousand years is plenty of time for these features to form. The Genesis Flood deposited thick layers of sediment around the world and as this sediment turned into rock layers, the elements of erosion gradually removed much of this sediment.

The hoodoos of Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah are believed to have formed from remnant flood lake bed sediments as harder rock layers were deposited on top of softer sediments. In addition, the rapid uplift of the Colorado Plateau, which is believed by creation geologists to have occurred during the Flood, rapidly enhanced the erosional process. The freezing and thawing of these rock layers over the last 4,000-plus years after the Genesis Flood has caused cracking and further erosion. Acidic rain water causes these cracks to widen as the erosional process continues. A harder, erosion-resistant top layer, or cap rock, has prevented these tall, slender columns from being completely eroded. (1)

​If the weathering processes cause erosion so quickly, these features cannot have existed for millions of years as the evolutionists propose and therefore can only be several thousand years old. Hoodoos have also been found in the Badlands of New Mexico which likely formed in a similar way as harder rock was deposited on top of softer rock.
