"马贼"峡谷,阿尔伯达,加拿大,1986

中文注释：

数千年的风，水，以及冰川腐蚀雕琢出了这座阿尔伯达深达400英尺的奇异荒谷。这是加拿大的“马贼”峡谷。传说曾经在该区域牧场鼎盛的时期，放牧的马匹有时候会在峡谷中消失，然后又带着不同的马场烙印出现，从那时起，这个峡谷就得了这么个怪名字.

英文注释：

Horsethief Canyon, Alberta, Canada, 1986

Thousands of years of wind, water, and glacial erosion have carved out these eerie badlands 400 feet (122 meters) below prairie level in Alberta, Canada's Horsethief Canyon. Legend has it that during the region's ranching heyday, horses would sometimes disappear into the canyons and emerge later marked with different brands, hence the canyon's curious name.
