There’s a section of the Grand Canyon where all of the side canyons were optimistically named by prospectors who presumably thought it might bring them luck. Agate, Sapphire, Turquoise, Ruby, Emerald, Serpentine. None of these things were ever found by the miners, so I always thought they should have continued the tradition of naming the side canyons after things that are not there. Plum, Giraffe, Obama, Cyclotron, Mozzarella.

There’s a famous Elephant Canyon in Canyonlands NP, too. But I guess I’m less skeptical about Fish River.
